English 10 B – H

English 10 is devoted to students studying literature from a world perspective. Each unit allows for close study of literary works, as well as consideration of historical and cultural context. The units focus on major genres (fiction, historical fiction, drama, and memoir). Thus students come to grasp the relationship between local concerns and universal questions. Through these studies, students gain cultural insight as they explore works by various authors, including contemporary works. Students become aware of the authors’ views of literature itself-its forms, peculiarities, language, and relationship to reality. Throughout the year, students will write for various purposes and part in the research process.
