NEW COURSE: English First Peoples 12
The focus in this course is on deepening understanding of Indigenous issues and perspectives through the exploration of Authentic Indigenous text. Students will explore text in a variety of forms and genres, and will be encouraged to think critically, creatively and reflectively to explore ideas within and between texts; they will write in a variety of genres, structures, and forms, and will be encouraged to take risks and become ever more precise and intentional in their use of language.
