Grade 10

1.00 Credit

Level 2

Course # 1122

This course is not equivalent to a traditional honors course; it is a fast-paced preparatory college level course.  Students will be reading, discussing, and writing almost daily while completing various research projects.  Additionally, students will regularly complete only short answer test responses to prove their own ideas.  The primary focus is to help students understand how and why authors compose their pieces.  By taking this course now and enrolling in the AP Language and Composition course next year, students will learn to develop a strategy for reading, writing, and prioritizing their college workload.
