1 AP ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND COMPOSITION COURSE DESCRIPTION* An AP course in English Language and Composition engages students in becoming skilled readers of prose written in a variety of periods, disciplines, rhetorical contexts and in becoming skilled writers who compose for a variety of purposes. Both their writing and their reading should make students aware of the interactions among a writer s purposes, audience expectations, and subjects as well as the way genre conventions and the resources of language contribute to effectiveness in writing. *Description taken in part from the AP College Board website: COURSE OVERVIEW This course will be organized thematically around a group of ideas or issues, using a variety of works from several literary periods and various genres. Although the bulk of the reading will be non fiction, students will read three novels and several poems throughout the year. Students will examine rhetorical strategies and stylistic choices authors make. Specifically, students will examine the interactions between speaker/persona, audience, subject, purpose/intent, context, and genre in texts. Understanding texts using the Five Canons of Classical Rhetoric (invention, arrangement, style, memory, and delivery) will also inform students analyses. For each reading, students will be required to provide extended, structured journal entries, which will help them analyze critically. In these responses, students will discuss adherence to theme, symbols, diction, tone, perspective, historical significance, and other rhetorical elements of importance. Periodically, students will be required to write imitation exercises, which allow students the opportunity to practice for mastery the rhetorical variations authors use in their writing. Students will also write essays that examine the rhetorical design of AP prompt formatted questions, which will be timed initially then revised and rewritten following self, peer, and teacher review/evaluation. In addition to writing about texts in analytical journal responses and essays and imitating professional writing, students will be required to synthesize information from a variety of sources (both textual and visual) in argumentative papers. Using both primary and secondary sources and citing appropriately using MLA style citation become increasingly important with these research style essays. Students will be encouraged to establish and maintain a unique voice, which is determinate upon specific word choices and syntactical arrangements.although critical reading and
2 writing are of paramount importance in this course, students also will benefit from vocabulary exercises and review (from context and in isolation) to inform and enhance studies. Students grammar and syntax errors or concerns will be addressed routinely throughout the course. Finally, released multiple choice exams from previous years will serve as timed practice, catalysts for discussion, and detailed examination. REQUIREMENTS Read assignments by required date Keep and maintain binder, complete with journal responses, imitation exercises, notes, vocabulary development exercises, graded papers/assignments Essays (both timed and extended), research paper, reflection papers, projects, and presentations Tests and quizzes (objective and subjective; formative and summative) Active participation Excellent attendance and preparation AP English Language and Composition Exam in early May MATERIALS Texts: Diyanni, Robert.
