American Literature

Welcome to English III (American Literature) with Ms. Phillips

As a teacher, I enjoy working with students as they delve into the riches hidden in literature and begin to create works of their own. This website is a resource to find information concerning assignments, in-class activities, and aids to study. Please avail yourself of all the resources here and as always, feel free to contact me with any questions.

What English III Covers

English III provides an overview of American literature and thought from Puritan to modern times. In addition to selections from the anthology, students will read from a selection  of American novels. The course also will stress essay writing in the persuasive mode in preparation for the required state writing assessment. Grammar and usage will be taught relating to student writing as well.  The credit earned from this course fulfills a graduation requirement.
