Units of Study

The Units of Study for both English 1-2 and English 1-2 Honors follow the Pearson Realize curriculum and Dysart's Scope and Sequence. The material in the Honors class will be taught at a higher lever and in more depth. It will go at a faster pace and cover more material (novels) overall. The Honors class is a pre-Advanced Placement course.
