    Description
    Students review reading skills and strategies necessary for college success, including reading for main ideas, determining organizational patterns of details presented, and drawing logical conclusions in paragraphs and short essays. Readings and vocabulary study are in the 9th to 11th grade range. Students are introduced to more critical reading skills (determining author's purpose, tone, point of view, and intended audience) and literary concepts (interpreting figures of speech, characterization, plot, setting, and theme).
