This full-year course is a continuation of the 9th grade grammar class, and is designed to provide students with a solid grammatical foundation, and to improve grammar skills, vocabulary range, and writing ability. Students will study a variety of grammar textbooks and writing manuals, read novels, do grammar and vocabulary exercises and take practice SAT/ACT Reading and Writing tests. They will also apply their knowledge of English grammar and syntax to a variety of writing projects, including journalism articles, chapter analyses of literary works, and an essay. By the end of the year, students should have an even stronger command of correct written and spoken English; they should also have significantly increased their vocabularies and improved their writing styles. They should also be able to edit and revise their own written work, and to craft strong journalism articles, chapter analyses, and essays.
