to AP Language. Most of our activities this semester will involve a careful consideration of language (as readers, writers, speakers, etc.). Hopefully, you already have some innate curiosity about language in general, and about English specifically. As we progress this semester, try to become even more sensitive to and knowledgeable about the intricacies and nuances of the English language wherever and whenever you encounter it. You can expect to do some of the usual English classroom activities--reading and writing--but we will also spend a good deal of time finding new ways to engage with and analyze langauge.
