Ms. Greeley's 12th grade English class goals for the year are for students to improve their writing skills in various genres and think critically about texts. Topics that will be covered include social commentary, history lessons found in literature, relating modern characters to classic ones, and the psychology of literature. Students will complete a blog project where they post short stories, responses to current events, reflections, or poems weekly. As part of a creative writing unit, students will create accounts on a website to publish and discuss writing with people around the world. The projects aim to help students use technology as a tool for learning and development.
