This course is specifically designed for credit recovery purposes and is intended for students who have previously attempted and failed the corresponding course.

Students will develop a basic understanding of poetry as they analyze and isolate figures of speech, enhance their writing skills as several different rhetorical modes are practiced, and enlarge their vocabulary while becoming more proficient at punctuation. This is the first course in a two-part Twelfth-Grade English series (ENGL 055 and ENGL 057). This course also encompasses Common Core State Standards.
