English 12 is a survey of British and world literature organized both chronologically and thematically. Beginning with the Anglo-Saxons and continuing to modern authors, students read literature from many different genres including poetry, drama, essay, novel, and short story. The course focuses on utilizing reading strategies, improving writing skills, mastering new vocabulary and honing critical thinking skills. After completing the course, students will be able to name the characteristics of each period of British literature, how they differ, and how they drew on elements from the past; use the rules of good grammar and logical writing to produce written opinions about the literature they read; recognize more vocabulary words and know where to find the meaning of words that they don’t understand; recognize some basic elements of literary types; identify the basic rules of grammar; identify the steps in clear, logical writing; and read with more skill and more confidence. Students may take the first semester of the course without taking the second semester but may not take semester 2 without taking semester 1.
