CP+Forms+of+Lit+&+Comp+9

Welcome to Delran High School! I am excited to be your teacher for CP Forms of Lit and Composition. Please find all related class materials on this page. For all **homework** information, please click HERE.

Course Description: // Forms of Literature and Composition 9 lays the foundation for the English curriculum for the next four years. Students read and analyze the four major genres of literature: fiction, non-fiction, drama, and poetry. Within the literature, students focus on how literature is used to tell a coming-of-age tale and to create identity, as well as examining the authors as writers and how they choose to write in the particular style and genre. In composition, students learn to write a variety of essays and other forms of communication for a variety of purposes and audiences. Students work with the Internet and electronic resources to learn how to evaluate information for appropriateness and accuracy, as well as how to utilize the Internet and other available electronic resources as tools for learning and communicating. //
