Honors+English+IV

Honors English IV The scope and sequence of literature for North Carolina high school students allows for a literary experience that carries not only a global perspective but an opportunity to view U.S. literature and literary nonfiction within a global lens. English IV specifically completes the global perspective initiated in English II. Though its focus is on European (Western, Southern, and Northern) literature, this course includes important U.S. documents and literature (texts influenced by European philosophy or action). At least one Shakespearean play will be included. //-Public Schools of North Carlina Common Core (Standard Course of Study)-//
