Welcome
to English 10! This course places emphasis on reading and analyzing both
literary and informational texts, developing research skills, and writing
narratives, arguments, and expository compositions. As the year progresses we will develop
critical thinking, writing skills, reading skills, literature complexity, and
vocabulary. Mastery of the writing process is expected. During the school year,
we will delve into each of these titles: Of Mice and Men, Antigone, Edith Hamilton’s Mythology,
“Hope, Despair, and Memory,” Much Ado
About Nothing and/or Othello, and
The Book Thief.
