AP English Literature and Composition (S)

Advanced Placement Literature and Composition is a college- level course. Students will engage in the careful reading and critical analysis of imaginative literature. Through the close reading of selected texts, students will deepen their understanding of the ways writers use language to provide both meaning and pleasure to their readers. This course is for students who have attained the reading and writing skills generally expected in introductory college courses in composition and literature. Students will be eligible to take the Literature and Composition AP Exam at the end of the year. Course Offerings & Descriptions Students should carefully select courses to be taken. While UCPS will help support and guide students, it is the responsibility of students and parents to make sure they have the correct number and composition of units needed to graduate. If unsure, students should contact their school counselor for assistance. A worksheet to help keep track of courses taken is provided in Appendix II. Individual courses are listed under major content area headings. Some courses or programs require specialized facilities or personnel and are available only at certain locations. Though most subject areas do have courses that are to be taken in a progressive sequence (e.g. English l should be taken before English II), program area courses are listed alphabetically for ease of use. Courses are listed indicating the course title and the duration. For example, English I (S), indicates the English I course is taught at the college prep level, one semester long (S) and one unit of credit will be awarded upon successful completion. English I Honors (S), indicates the English I course is taught at the honors level, one semester long (S) and one unit of credit will be issued upon successful completion. Courses that are one year in duration are designated with a “Y”. Future Ready Course of Study
