1 Advanced Placement Literature and Composition AP English 12 The AP English Literature and Composition Course is designed to cover the equivalent of a college English course. Successful completion of the course and the AP Exam offered in May should result college credit (type of credit depends on the school and the actual score earned).

Objectives *Students will identify literary structures and conventions to increase the effectiveness of their writing. *Students will employ narrative, expository, analytical and argumentative writing as they consider a wide variety of genres and prose, including major Classical, English and American texts. *Students will develop a writing process that includes strategies needed to self-edit and respond to peer and teacher responses. *Students will sustain discussions of topics in language and culture while debating current issues and literature. *Students will gain familiarity with AP terms and question styles including development of an extensive vocabulary for use on the AP Exam and other college entrance exams.
