Course Summary
Reach is one of the few summer schools able to offer the Ontario credit courses thanks to our long-term partnership with fully accredited Canadian teachers. This enables students the opportunity to gain their Canadian Credit in Grade 12 English during the summer. This will be achieved through a combination of online teaching in late June (both synchronous and asynchronous online teaching) followed by 2 weeks of classes in Cambridge from 2nd – 15th July.
This course emphasizes the consolidation of the literacy, communication, and critical and creative thinking skills necessary for success in academic and daily life. Students will analyse a range of challenging literary texts from various periods, countries, and cultures; interpret and evaluate informational and graphic texts; and create oral, written, and media texts in a variety of forms. An important focus will be on using academic language coherently and confidently, selecting the reading strategies best suited to particular texts and particular purposes for reading, and developing greater control in writing.
Students will be required to do research assignments on a variety of topics and will be encouraged to use the web as a source of information.
