English 8 Literature and Composition
We will begin the school year with our first collection, "Culture and Belonging," where students will explore how people develop their own identity within a new culture. At the end of the collection, students will complete two performance assessments. In the first assessment, students will conduct research and write an informative essay on the best ways for newcomers to adjust to living in the United States. In the second assessment, students will write a personal narrative about adjusting to a new situation or fitting in with different groups. Take a peek at the texts we'll be reading in Collection 3!
