Important Consideration: Because this class comes with half a credit but only meets one day per week, a substantial amount of homework will be assigned. Please be prepared to spend an average of an hour per day (5 days a week) on research and/or writing, apart from the class itself.

Class Summary: The High School Writing Composition class can count as part of an English credit or could serve as an elective. Students will learn to write in various genres, including persuasive, narrative, expository, technical, poetic/creative, and descriptive. A special emphasis on writing from a marketing and sales perspective is part of the class, and students will have an opportunity to write advertising copy for an exciting project they will pursue with a partner. Public speaking will be an ongoing regular exercise in this class, and a crash course in mastering note-taking will also be included.
