12 th Grade – History of the English Language through British & World Literature Course Description: English 12 is a study of the evolution of the English language through British and world literature. Students continue to hone their analytical skills and seek to answer critical questions about language and literature: What factors affect the evolution of language What allows a piece of literature to endure the vagaries of culture and time What does it mean to think through language and literature Students demonstrate understanding of language and literature through polished compositions, literary analysis, and speaking. Additional emphasis is placed on the development of a personal, sophisticated style of communication that reflects creative, critical thinking. Advanced Placement Option: Advanced Placement English is for twelfth-grade students who want an intensive, college-level English course that prepares them to take one or both of the AP English Exams. The course is conducted much like a college seminar and therefore requires high-quality work in and out of class. Students are asked to read works of literature analytically and critically; they respond with increasing sensitivity and discrimination to language. Essays focus on literary analysis but students also have some opportunity to practice creative writing. Students are encouraged to take the AP exam. Teachers should refer to the College Board web site for curricular requirements and testing information. PVCC/Dual Enrollment Option: Dual Enrollment is for twelfth-grade students who want a college-level course experience with more emphasis on writing. These courses allow students to earn both high school and college credits simultaneously. The PVCC texts have an expectation of elements presented in the Albemarle County Language Arts Curriculum Framework for 12 th grade. Teachers should refer to the PVCC web site for course syllabi and curricular requirements. © Albemarle County Public Schools, May 2006 73
