In English I, students will read and write daily through a rigorous curriculum designed to prepare students for success as they enter high school. We will use inquiry and collaborative methods to spark creativity and develop critical thinking skills. The classroom environment will be a place that fosters a lifelong love of reading and writing.
In addition to a variety of poems, short stories, speeches, and informational passages, we will study select novels and dramas. Online or hard copies of each will be available to every student; however, you might wish to purchase your own copy so that you can annotate it. I will notify you through Google Classroom, the Remind app, and on this website before we begin each work so that you will have time to order your own copy if you prefer.
