In a "Reading and Rhetoric" course we will interpret traditional text in books, essays and poetry, as well as peer presentations and popular media (films and music). Below are the academic requirements.
Students are expected to read every day for at least 30 minutes; they will record the pages read and a brief summary every week.
Every class meeting students will receive instruction on reading skills, cooperate and participate in small groups for skills practice, and present skills mastered.
Skills mastery includes quizzes, unit tests and presentations.
