In the process they will gain a fuller understanding of the unique heritage and vision of the American people.
Each literary work is a window into the real-life issues experienced in the past and today. Active reading and critical evaluation is emphasized. Students refine composition and presentation skills by writing essays (expository interpretive and comparative) interviews short stories and speeches.
