Expository Reading and Writing Course (English 12) (Period 4)

Course Description

The ERWC (Expository Reading and Writing Course) is a college preparatory, rhetoric-based English language arts course for grade 12 designed to develop academic literacy (advanced proficiency in rhetorical and analytical reading, writing, and thinking).

This course will focus largely on expository texts .While reading such texts, students will develop an understanding of literary terminology as they think critically about the texts they read. In addition, outside resources such as YouTube videos, TED talks, documentaries and movies will be integrated throughout the course.
