1st:  Honors English III

2nd: Planning

3rd:  Honors English III

4th:  Honors English III

 

Course Description

Students in English III analyze United States literature as it reflects social perspective and historical significance by continuing to use language for expressive, expository, argumentative, and literary purposes.  The emphasis in English III is critical analysis of texts through reading, writing, speaking, listening, and using media.

In addition, the student will:

  • Relate the experience of authors to their own.
  • Research the diversity of American experience
  • Examine relationships between past and present.
  • Build incresing sophistication in defining issues and using argument effectively.
  • Create products and presentations which maintain conventions of written and oral language.

Students in the honors course will explore United States literature more widely and deeply, including more challenging and/or complete print and non-print texts. The honors English course fosters intellectual curiosity by encouraging students to generate thought-provoking questions and topics and to research diverse sources. Honors courses will require students to work as self-directed and reflective learners, both independently and in groups as leaders and collaborators. Higher level thinking skills will be emphasized through interdisciplinary and critical perspectives as reflected in the quality of student performance in oral language, written language, and other media/technology.
