Welcome! My name is Mrs. Bartlett and I will be one of the LS/ES English teachers this year at Abington Senior High School. This page will serve as the main source for all class materials. All assignments will be turned in via Google Classroom during this time.
Class Overview
Welcome to the study of English! During the course of this year we will be focusing primarily on global literature, so we will be reading materials from authors all around the world! During this course we will read a wide variety of genres, from novels to poetry, short fiction to essays and other non-fiction. In addition, students will work on developing and improving their skills in all areas of English Language Arts, including their reading comprehension skills, their writing skills, and their critical thinking skills.
Throughout our course of studying we will be working on a variety of goals and course objectives, such as:
Develop students' competence as readers, writers, speakers and listeners
To read, analyze and respond to a variety of literature, both classic and contemporary
To hone and develop students' higher level reading and writing skills and to heighten their overall communication skills
To help each student work towards meeting their individualized goals as found in their IEP
