AP Language with American Literature - Week of March 23-27, 2020 

Weekly Learning Goals  Focus Standards 

Evaluate research to write your own argument.
Practice multiple choice skills for AP exam. Use new
vocabulary in writing. Analyze rhetorical appeals.
Determine author’s purpose.
ELAGSE11-12RI6: ​Determine an author’s point of view or purpose in a text in which the rhetoric is particularly effective, analyzing how style and content contribute to the power,
persuasiveness, or beauty of the text. ​CollegeBoard: ​C1—The course teaches and requires students to write in several forms (e.g., narrative, expository, analytical, and
argumentative essays) about a variety of subjects (e.g., public policies, popular culture, personal experiences). C4—The course requires expository, analytical, and argumentative
writing assignments that are based on readings representing a wide variety of prose styles and genres. C7—The course teaches research skills, and in particular, the ability to
evaluate, use, and cite primary and secondary sources. The course assigns projects such as the researched argument paper, which goes beyond the parameters of a traditional
research paper by asking students to present an argument of their own that includes the analysis and synthesis of ideas from an array of sources. LO1—analyze and interpret
samples of good writing, identifying and explaining an author’s use of rhetorical strategies and techniques; LO2—apply effective strategies and techniques in their own writing;
LO3—create and sustain arguments based on readings, research, and/or personal experience; LO4— write for a variety of purposes
