The AP English Language and Composition course is designed to enable students to become skilled readers and writers in diverse genres and modes of composition. As stated in the Advanced Placement Course Description, the purpose of the Language and Composition course is “to enable students to read complex texts with understanding and to write papers of sufficient richness and complexity to communicate effectively with mature readers” (The College Board, May 2007, May 2008, p.6).

Whitman--closure/ Ralph Waldo Emerson Intro
WHITMAN REVIEW/Closure:
Please answer the questions with specific examples on the Whitman "Song of Myself" handout.
This is a way for me and you to see what you recall about Whitman, his poem, and his importance in the Transcendentalism unit.
Emerson Introduction:
We will watch the video about Emerson and go over a powerpoint introduction.
