English 11 SDAIE (Period 3)

The English 11 course in literature and composition focuses on American literature from a chronological and historical perspective. Our objective is to read and analyze a variety of American literature to gain a better understanding of the process by which literature and culture has evolved from the conception of our country until today. In addition to reading textbook selections and two novels, students will engage in several genres of essay writing, including auto/biographical, responses to literature, and a historically researched paper.

SDAIE strategies will be used to support language acquisition.
