English 10

Welcome to the English 10 page for Mr. Watkins' English 10 classes! This page is a resource for my students and the parents and guardians of those students.

First, a little about this class. This year students will study literature of a variety of eras and countries, focusing on analysis and critique of these works in accordance with Grade 10 Standards of Learning. Writing instruction will include a combination of formal and informal assignments. Grammar instruction will be done through regular in-class assignments and writing practice. Students will enhance oral communication skills through small group learning, as well as develop research techniques.

If you would like to read the syllabus for this class in full, please go to Canvas and read the syllabus in the Week 1 Module.

If you are a student, parent, or guardian, you email Mr. Watkins at any time: swatkins@salem.k12.va.us. If you prefer to call, you can call the main office: (540-387-2437). All calls and emails will be responded to within one business day.

Thank you for checking in. We've got quite a lot to do this year! I look forward to it.
