COURSE DESCRIPTION

What makes us unique is the creative, imaginative and powerful ways we communicate. We communicate using language and language is what we study in English. We look at language in a variety of ways. We look at the language of novels, plays, poems and film; and we also look at the language of speeches and debates, graphic novels and visual images. We will prepare you for NCEA Level 1, and in so doing will focus on reading text and creating our own text.
