1 I. Description of Course: English II: Klein Forest High School Course Syllabus Outline English II English II further expands and refines the language arts concepts and skills introduced in English I. In addition, this course continues to focus on writing experiences that incorporate the purposes and modes of writing for a variety of audiences and forms, documented multiparagraph compositions, identification of rhetorical devices and intended effect, development of a theme in a literary work, and the utilization of advanced/special reference materials. Through integrated units of study, the curriculum provides extensive practice in rhetorical writing activities in the study of literature and in the development of critical thinking. This course fulfills one year of English credit and culminates with the STAAR EOC exam. II. Objectives: including Enduring Understanding, topics, and resources with textbook and online links: * All skills and genres are recursive and are not specific to a single six-weeks. Each genre and skill will be addressed when necessary according to the thematic units of the 2014 revised curriculum. 1st Six-Week Period: Essential Understanding 1. All literature contains meaning beyond the words on the page; authors use sensory language, images, sound devices, and symbols in addition to plot to bring a perspective to their work. 2. Writers of short stories must have a firm grasp of plot structure, characterization, sensory language, and voice. 3. Good writers demonstrate capable implementation of verb parts, subject/verb agreement, and active/passive voice and an awareness of specific Greek and Latin word parts. 2nd Six-Week Period: Essential Understanding 1. When an author writes nonfiction, his focus is aimed at reporting the facts of real people, places, events and ideas. Whereas, when an author writes fiction, his focus is an imagined world of characters and locations in an attempt to evoke a feeling. 2. Writers of autobiographical narratives tell a story from their own life and point of view. 3. Good writers demonstrate capable implementation of pronouns, nouns and an awareness of specific Greek and Latin word parts. 4. Nonfiction writing presents facts, explains concepts or can tell about events.
2 5. Nonfiction writing can include magazines, encyclopedias, essays, speeches, autobiographies and newspapers. 6. A writer of nonfiction may use elements of persuasion, rhetorical devices to influence the reader or convey a meaning. 7. A good writer demonstrates capable implementation of direct/indirect objects, degrees of adverbs/adjectives, revision techniques and an awareness of specific Greek and Latin word parts. 3 rd Six Week Period: Essential Understanding 1. The poet s message is shaped by words, figurative language, and sound devices used in within the poem. 2. A writer of poetry must use patterns of organization to immulate the styling of previous poets. 3. Good writers demonstrate capable implementation of prepositions and infinitives and an awareness of specific Greek and Latin word parts. 4 th Six Week Period: Essential Understanding 1. Nonfiction writing presents facts, explains concepts or can tell about events. 2. Nonfiction writing can include magazines, encyclopedias, essays, speeches, autobiographies and newspapers. 3. A writer of nonfiction may use elements of persuasion, rhetorical devices to influence the reader or convey a meaning. 4. Drama incorporates a heavy focus on dialogue, while using stage cues and all the elements of fiction. 5. A scriptwriter must demonstrate a mastery of diction. 6. A scriptwriter must create a plot of conflict and resolution.
3 5th Six Week Period: Essential Understanding 1. Oral traditions are stories that are handed down by word-of-mouth and are the oldest form of storytelling. They reflect the oldest themes and mysteries known to mankind. 2. The hero is a legendary character that performs great deeds, helps others on a daily basis, makes a personal sacrifice, and whose determination leads to great accomplishments 3. The archetype hero will follow a formulaic journey from Departure s The Call through Return s Sharing of Gifts. 4. A good writer demonstrates capable implementation of simple/ compound sentences, compound/complex sentences, punctuation and an awareness of specific Greek and Latin roots. 6 th Six Week Period: Essential Understanding 1. Social and cultural contexts influence the events and language of a novel. 2. Literature circles are used to discuss, analyze, and investigate information related to novel structure, focusing on such areas as theme, character development, and liner/non-linear plot development. 3. The historical context of a novel and the author s background affect the author s work. 4. A good writer writes an analytical essay with a thesis and controlling idea, evidence from the text using embedded quotations, and analyzes the aesthetic effects of an author s use of stylistic and rhetorical devices. Readiness Objectives: Students will learn to analyze textual context to distinguish between the denotative and connotative meaning of words. Students will learn to use a dictionary, a glossary, or a thesaurus to determine or confirm the meanings of words and phrases, including their connotations and denotations, and their etymology. Students will learn to analyze isolated scenes and their contribution to the success of the plot as a whole in a variety of works of fiction. Students will learn to analyze the controlling idea and specific purpose of a passage and the textual elements that support and elaborate it, including both the most important details and the less important details. Students will learn to make and defend subtle inferences and complex conclusions about the ideas in text and their organizational patterns.
4 Students will learn to make complex inferences about text and use textual evidence to support understanding. Students will learn to structure ideas in a sustained and persuasive way and develop drafts in timed and open-ended situations that include transitions and rhetorical devices used to convey meaning. Students will learn to revise drafts to improve style, word choice, figurative language, sentence variety, and subtlety of meaning after rethinking how well questions of purpose, audience, and genre have been addressed. Students will learn to write persuasive texts to influence the attitudes or actions of a specific audience on specific issues. Students will learn to use and understand the function of the parts of speech in the context of reading, writing, and speaking. Students will learn to use a variety of correctly structured sentences.

Grading procedures including re-teach options and retest guidelines for major grades: All grading procedures will follow the ELA Department grading guidelines. IV. Grade Repair procedures: Students will have the opportunity to receive instruction to recover six weeks grades.

The curriculum will recapture any skills they are lacking so that they are prepared to receive credit and also be prepared for the EOC/TAKS in April or May. This intervention plan may include students attending after school Grade Recovery or Grade Recovery during the day. The highest grade a student can earn is 75. This grade will replace the lower grade. Students enrolled in Pre-AP courses may enroll in grade repair and receive Pre- AP credit for up to 1 six weeks per semester.. V.
