The English Grammar and Writing class is designed to help students become skilled readers and writers through engagement with the following course requirements:

  • – Composing in several forms (e.g., narrative, expository, analytical, and argumentative essays) about a variety of subjects.
  • – Writing that proceeds through several stages or drafts, with revision aided by teacher and peers.
  • – Writing informally (e.g., imitation exercises, journal keeping, collaborative writing), which helps students become aware of themselves as writers and the techniques employed by other writers.
  • – Writing expository, analytical, and argumentative compositions based on readings representing a variety of prose styles and genres.
  • – Reading nonfiction (e.g., essays, journalism, science writing, autobiographies, criticism) selected to give students opportunities to identify and explain an author’s use of rhetorical strategies and techniques.
  • – Analyzing graphics and visual images both in relation to written texts and as alternative forms of text themselves.
  • – Developing research skills and the ability to evaluate, use, and cite primary and secondary sources.
  • – Conducting research and writing argument papers in which students present an argument of their own that includes the analysis and synthesis of ideas from an array of sources.
  • – Citing sources using a recognized editorial style (e.g., Modern Language Association, The Chicago Manual of Style.)
  • – Revising their work to develop a wide-ranging vocabulary used appropriately and effectively; a variety of sentence structures, including appropriate use of subordination and coordination; logical organization, enhanced by techniques such as repetition, transitions, and emphasis; a balance of generalization and specific, illustrative detail; and an effective use of rhetoric, including tone, voice, diction, and sentence structure.
