The purpose of this course is to provide students, using texts of high complexity, advanced integrated language arts study in reading, writing, speaking, listening, and language for college and career preparation and readiness. In an honors class, academic rigor is more than simply a teacher assigning students a greater quantity of reading or work. Through the application, analysis, evaluation, and creation of complex ideas that are often abstract and multifaceted, English 1 Honors students are challenged to think and collaborate critically on the content they are learning.  \nStudents enrolled in this class will regularly:  \n􀁸 actively read a variety of grade-appropriate texts for what they say explicitly, as well as logical inferences that can be drawn from them  \n􀁸 analyze literature and informational texts from a variety of literary periods to examine text craft and structure; elements of literature; arguments and claims supported by textual evidence; the power and impact of language; the influence of history, culture, and setting on language; and personal, critical, and aesthetic response.  \n􀁸 write for a variety purposes including developing and supporting argumentative claims; crafting coherent, supported informative/expository texts; responding to literature for personal and analytical purposes; writing narratives to develop real or imagined events; and writing to sources using text-based evidence and reasoning.  \n􀁸 practice effective listening, speaking, and viewing strategies with an emphasis on the use of evidence to support or refute a claim in multimedia presentations, class discussions, and extended text discussions  \n􀁸 collaborate amongst their peers  \nClassroom Policies  \nMake-up Work  \nIn the case of a student’s absence, it is completely the student’s responsibility to obtain any and all materials and information delivered in class during the period of the absence. If a quiz was missed, the student has a maximum of five school days during which to make it up before the quiz grade is permanently a zero. As classtime often does not provide the necessary time for a student to make up a quiz (or receive one-on-one instruction in the case ofan absence), the student may need to set up with Mr. Benton a time to meet before or after school in order to do so. A student’s first resource in the case of an absence is the class agenda board (which is updated with the following week’s schedule every Friday in the [classroom and on ](classroom and on bentonenglish.com)[bentonenglish.com](classroom and on bentonenglish.com)). Downloadable handouts are also available from the class website. It should be noted that multiple absences in a class can remove a student’s ability to exempt any/all semester exams.  \nLate Work  \nAssignments that are turned in one school day late will always receive a 50%-off penalty. Work that is turned in over one school day late will always receive a 0% . This policy is strictly enforced. The exceptions to this rule are some long-term assignments (e.g. journals, papers) for which 15-40%(the percentage steadily increases throughout the year at Mr. Benton’s discretion) will be deducted for each late day. It should be noted that all long-term assignments such as journals and papers must be turned in on the due date regardless of whether or not a student is present.  \nAcademic Honesty  \nMr. Benton’s definition of “cheating” is very broad. Students are expected to complete all assignments without the assistance of others unless Mr. Benton explicitly allows written permission for collaboration on a specific assignment. Sharing work, using another’s work for reference,“just trying to help”, or using any other human’s ideas without specifically citing the source will result in a grade of 0% on the assignment and a referral to administration for cheating. Students should report to tutoring instead of resorting to academic immorality.  \nGrade Mon","cbCairJIRlaUxLXS","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCairJIRlaUxLXS","pdf",1218965,"English","# Course Description\n# Classroom Policies\n## Make-up Work\n## Late Work\n## Academic Honesty\n## Grade Monitoring\n## Tutoring Availability\n## Computer Access\n## Electronic Devices","[{\"question\":\"What skills and areas of study does English 1 Honors focus on?\",\"answer\":\"The course uses high-complexity texts for reading, writing, speaking, listening, and language study.
