In this class, we will pair quality fiction with persuasive essays. Every writer - no matter how experienced  - has to invent ideas, organize those ideas clearly, and express them effectively. The three canons of classical rhetoric - Invention, Arrangement, Elocution - do this. Students will also learn literary terms and maintain a literary response journal.

Literature selections include* (TBD): 

Beorn the Proud

The Trumpeter of Krakow

Young Fu of the Upper Yangtze

The King's Fifth

Johnny Tremain

Moccasin Trail
