Language Arts 9-EVP explores literature and composition through hands-on collaborative learning. Students will read short stories, poetry, nonfiction, novels and dramas while connecting with classmates as they explore universal themes that relate to real-life experiences. Grammar and vocabulary instruction are integrated into the weekly instruction, and are designed to help students’ writing grow in depth and complexity. As part of the EVP program, students will attend one live class (required) each week that is rooted in discussion and interactive learning.

Student Feedback
The live aspects of this class are very helpful to the comprehension of the material.
I love the EVP classes because there are firm due dates so you cannot procrastinate doing assignments.
I thought in the beginning that it was going to be another boring English class, but I was pleasantly surprised. The class is actually really fun and interesting.
