English 9
Welcome to the new school year with Ms. Lopez. English 9 is an intensive year long course, designed to develop skills necessary for English 10, as well as to prepare students to be college and career ready. This course is a balanced, comprehensive program that develops skills in reading, writing, speaking and listening and fosters the appreciation of language arts. Students will continue to improve their research skills as they prepare essays and oral presentations.
Bienvenido al nuevo año escolar con la Sra. Lopez. inglés 9 es un curso intensivo de un año de duración, diseñado para desarrollar las habilidades necesarias para inglés 10, así como para preparar a los estudiantes para la universidad y la carrera. Este curso es un programa equilibrado e integral que desarrolla habilidades para leer, escribir, hablar y escuchar y fomenta la apreciación de las artes del lenguaje. Los estudiantes continuarán mejorando sus habilidades de investigación mientras preparan ensayos, presentaciones orales y un trabajo de investigación.
To meet minimum admission requirements (UC’s, CAL States, Private), students must complete 15 yearlong high school courses with a letter grade of C or better — at least 11 of them prior to your last year of high school. Keep in mind that taking approved high school (A-G) courses isn't the only way to satisfy these requirements. You also may meet them by completing college courses or earning certain scores on various acceptable exams.
All courses approved for the English (B) subject requirement will give students full awareness and control of the means of linguistic production --orally, in writing, and using a range of technologies. Regardless of the course level, approved courses will be expected to stress the reading and writing connection, address each of the core competencies section, and address all of the Common Core College and Career Readiness Anchor Standards in Reading, Writing, Listening and Speaking.
