Course Overview
Course Overview
English III focused on American Literature analyzing the idea of the American dream while also working towards college application readiness. Students will read a variety of texts including poetry, fiction, and nonfiction short stories, novels, and articles. Students will engage in quick writing along with longer essays as they build their writing skills.
The AP English Language and Composition course focuses on the development and revision of evidence-based analytic and argumentative writing, the rhetorical analysis of nonfiction texts, and the decisions writers make as they compose and revise. Students evaluate, synthesize, and cite research to support their arguments. Additionally, they read and analyze rhetorical elements and their effects in nonfiction texts—including images as forms of text— from a range of disciplines and historical periods (College Board 2021).
