Students in Honors/Standard English II read, discuss, and write about classical and contemporary world literature in a cultural context to appreciate the diversity and complexity of world issues and to connect global ideas to their own experiences. Students will continue to explore language and writing for narrative, informative/explanatory, opinion/argumentative and narrative purposes. Research skills will be exhibited in written and oral presentations. In addition to reading and writing, we will complete grammar work and weekly vocabulary exercises. Students can expect to work in greater depth and more independently on challenging texts. Students should be prepared for independent reading and homework assignments as we prepare for the final EOC exam in this course. Looking forward to a great semester!
