English 1: Introduction to Literature
This course meets once a week and is the equivalent of
one high school English credit. English 1 is designed to develop a student’s skills in grammar, vocabulary, and literature, with an emphasis on written expression. Students will reinforce their understanding of grammar, usage, and mechanics. Students will apply these skills to create paragraphs, essays, and a variety of compositions with strong sentence structure. Literary elements, poetry, and figures of speech will be introduced as well. Class activities will be interactive and hands-on to engage both enthusiastic and reluctant writers.
