American Lit/Comp

for Literature & Composition II. American Literature & Composition focuses on the integrated study of American texts; students develop an understanding of texts from at least three literary periods, considering history's impact on the literature's text structures, themes, and stylistic features. Students routinely engage in the integrated and recursive literacy practices that ground, shape, and inform their interpretations and constructions of texts that apply their grammar conventions, vocabulary, context, structure and style, techniques, research and analysis, and periods and movements understandings. Students will examine how historical events have influenced American writers, and they will also consider how in turn the nation's literature has affected historical events and shaped public opinion. By the end of the course, students will have a deeper understanding of the interconnection between American history and literature, preparing them for future academic pursuits and fostering an appreciation for America's literary legacy. This course must utilize the 9-12 standards and appropriate grade-level expectations of Georgia's K-12 English Language Arts (ELA) Standards.
