Course Overview
Welcome to English III!
English III combines a thematic, regional, and historical study of American literature and American culture focusing on analyzing the idea of the American Dream. Our study will largely be thematic in nature, and emphasis will be placed on developing critical reading and writing skills that connect each student’s own experience with the themes and ideas explored in the American literary tradition. In addition, this course will provide opportunities for improving research skills and preparing for the writing/vocabulary components of the SAT.
