Welcome to English with Ms. Duryea! This class will be an opportunity for you to explore and build upon your own writing, thinking, and communication styles as we explore primarily American authors. You will be growing your critical thinking, writing, and analytical skills through the reading of literature and non-fiction. We definitely have a lot of work to accomplish this year, so it is important to be focused and organized. I will do everything I can from my standpoint to assist – I look forward to going on this journey together!
