| Course Description: | |
| This course presents literature selections drawn from all genres, ranging from early world literature to contemporary works by writers from diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds. Students reflect in writing on what they have read; they also write for other purposes and various audiences. Working independently or in groups, students refine their use of language and understand the effects that changes in technology have made on the uses of language. The standards-based units of study integrate all aspects of literacy: reading, writing, speaking, and listening.
This course also provides protected time for small group designated English Language Development (dELD) instruction for English learners at all proficiency levels. This small group instruction builds critical language skills into and from the English content and is focused on the CA ELD Standards. | |
