Course Description

This course is intended for students who will be working with both their face-to-face classroom teacher and an NCVPS online teacher. Students will gain mastery of curricular concepts through a survey of world literature. Through the examination of vocabulary including prefixes and suffixes, literary genres including fables and short stories, textual analysis through poetry, drama, fiction and nonfiction, persuasion and argumentation, presentation techniques, cause and effect writing, and research focusing on global awareness, the student will explore, examine, and evaluate a wide variety of modes of expression. Technology skills will be honed through the course. Pre-Assessments will be used as diagnostic tools, while lessons present the content, and Post-Assessments measure mastery. This course is designed to be implemented in a blended learning environment with collaborative instruction delivered by an online highly-qualified English teacher as well as a face-to-face teacher.

The final grade includes standardized assessment grades as applicable and/or local board policies related to weighting. The final grade is what will be recorded on your official report card.
