Course Description

In tenth grade English, students will explore a variety of American and world literature texts to examine themes of self-exploration and socio-cultural identities.The primary focus of this course is to provide students with opportunities to think about their own identities in relation to the literary artists and their characters we meet in class.While reading new authors, we will concentrate on analytical skills to help students become critical readers of more advanced literature.This course will also introduce new vocabulary to students and build upon existing knowledge of grammar and reading and writing skills as we prepare for the state-mandated MCAS, SAT, and college level classes .
Why I’m Here

I am excited to be teaching tenth grade English because I first taught this class during my student teaching internship, and I have a lot of passion for the literature that this course covers.

English was always my favorite subject in high school which is why I chose to major in English in college and teach it to students as a career.I recognize that English may not be the subject of choice for all of my students, but I do understand how important reading and writing skills are to being successful in college, the workplace, and life.Our ability to be understood and appreciated by others relies heavily on how well we communicate our ideas on a daily basis.A conversation, interview, oral presentation, email, resume, or report all have the potential to make or break any number of valuable opportunities.

Over the next several months, my goal is to teach you skills that will help make you successful in college and beyond.Whether you become a healthcare professional or choose to pursue different career, I want you to be an effective communicator.I also hope that you discover a favorite author, character, or poet in my class, one with whom you can identity and take with you after high school.There is no greater reward for any English teacher than having a student who comes to love and appreciate good literature.

I am excited to begin a fantastic year!

In addition:

Plagiarism Policy:Students should already know how to properly cite materials and resources, therefore, academic dishonesty will not be tolerated. The consequences for academic dishonesty in this course are consistent with school policy. In this course plagiarism is not tolerated and the parent/guardian and guidance counselor will be notified immediately. The consequences for this will result in an individual conference with the teacher and an automatic zero for the assignment. These consequences hold true whether a student accidentally or deliberately plagiarizes a paper.

If a student is unsure about how to cite resources according to MLA guidelines, I am happy to offer my assistance and/or provide instructional materials after school.

Late Work Policy:LATE WORK IS NOT ACCEPTED! Assignments turned in late will only be accepted if a student has been absent or if there are extenuating circumstances. It is the student’s responsibility to see the teacher regarding missed assignments and/or exams due to absence(s).This must be done within two days of returning to school.

Assessment Strategies and Grading Policy

Each quarter’s grade will be determined by the following criteria:

Papers and Projects30%

There will be several papers and projects assigned throughout the school year including group projects, oral presentations, and formal writing assignments.These have the most significant impact on your grade because of the extra length of time given to complete them.

All written assignments should follow the Modern Language Association (MLA) format as taught to you in ninth grade.

Any paper passed in on time (or early) may be rewritten for a revised grade.

Tests and quizzes are specifically designed to measure your progress.If a student is absent on the day of a test or quiz, it is her or his responsibility to reschedule a make-up with me within one week of returning back to school.
