SCA Core Classes Curriculum
High School: 9th Grade
2024-2025
English 1 Honors
BJU Press
High school literature program helps students go beyond just reading literature. Students learn how to interact with and appreciate it. This program uses the reading process to help students complete close readings of each selection. Units are arranged thematically to encourage students to ask and engage with worldview shaping questions that help them to recognize different perspectives in literature. By studying literature, students expand their own understanding of and learn to take delight in excellent writing. By examining texts from different cultures, diverse authors and genres, and a range of time periods, students learn about differing cultures and worldviews and how to communicate with them. In turn, the students learn to analyze and evaluate literature through the lens of a biblical worldview. It is through the analysis and evaluation of historical and contemporary literature that students become discerning, lifelong readers and creative communicators.
