Language Arts 07


"The best way to get something done is to begin." -Author Unknown

Course Description
Discover your own ability to write through reading, listening, and analyzing various 
texts, such as newspapers and novels.  In this course, you will read and listen to other people’s words. You will analyze what they are saying and how they are saying it. You will read everything from newspapers to novels. Just as important, you will discover your own ability to use words. 

Materials & Books
You will need to obtain a copy of one of the books (your selected novel) listed below:
Tangerine by Edward Bloor
A Girl Named Disaster  by Nancy Farmer

Homecoming by Cynthia Voigt (this is an advanced novel, for those who are interested in a challenge)
You need to obtain a copy of these books by going to the library, your school library, or local bookstore. You may also ask your friends or your parents: they just may have a copy you may borrow. You may also go online and order books from Amazon.com or Barnes and Noble.com if you are unable to locate the title conveniently in your area.  Some books may be completely or partially available online for free: try  Project Gutenberg or GoogleBooks.

  2. However, I settled on a choice to compose a blog entry consistently for a year. I did this for some reasons, fundamentally to discover my voice, the novel message I'm intended to share. custom assignment writing services
