ENGLISH 10:  Semester 1 (Q1 & Q2) and Semester 2 (Q3 & Q4)

English 10 is a year-long course that emphasizes the fundamental language skills of reading, writing, thinking, viewing, and presenting. An emphasis on vocabulary and composition skills is an on-going part of the class. Students refine their skills of written expression by writing compare/contrast, literary analysis, research, persuasive, and narrative essays. Students analyze important themes in classic and modern works of various literary genres including short stories, novels, and non-fiction. Topics include author’s purpose and perspective, exploration of human motives and conflicts, the study of figurative, connotative, and technical vocabulary in context, literary devices, and the art of persuasion. The development of critical reading and writing skills is a major emphasis of the course. Students will utilize the knowledge and tools acquired each quarter to participate in a project-based learning assignment. The assignment will connect the real world around them to the content embedded within this course. (1SSENG10Q)

Please Note:


  • Online summer school courses are rigorous. Students will be taught an entire 20-week semester within each 3-week summer session and should plan to commit 6-7 hours per day to the coursework on Canvas.

  • Online summer school courses are self-paced and quarter-based. All work for each quarter is due by the end of that particular quarter. Students will earn two quarter grades instead of one semester grade.

  • Online summer school students will be expected to complete most of their work asynchronously and at their own pace. Teachers will be available throughout the week to offer instructional support by email during regular summer school hours. Teachers will hold one live virtual class a week to provide a synchronous learning opportunity which is optional, but highly recommended.

  • Year-long courses consist of two semesters that run consecutively. Semester 1 of a year-long course will only be offered during Session I. Semester 2 of a year-long course will only be offered during Session II. Semester-long courses such as PE, Health, and Government) will be offered during both Session 1 and Session 2.
