The concepts and outcomes of English Language Arts 30S will help students learn to think critically and to function more effectively within their community. They will examine issues
that are relevant to their lives and focus on every day applications of language. Students will be exposed to materials to further develop their literacy skills and enable them to respond
to, and interact with, a variety of pragmatic and aesthetic texts. Pragmatic texts may include newspapers, documentaries, television, magazines, the Internet, film and novels. Aesthetic texts set out to appeal to the imagination, senses and feelings and may include novels, modern drama, Shakespeare, poetry, film, short prose and media.
