The AP Lang Experience

What is AP Lang?
AP Lang is an 11th grade course formally know as AP Language and Composition. My AP Lang teacher, Mrs. Blankenship, described the course as the following," In AP Language and Composition students will analyze the use of language in a variety of rhetorical modes and develop the ability to use language effectively in their own compositions. In this college-level course the primary focus is the analysis of rhetorical through close readings of persuasive texts, nonfiction essays and works of American literature. Analysis of these various texts will teach students to appreciate the construction of rhetoric and the complexity of language and meaning; this appreciation will enable students to writing clearly and coherently while polishing their own writing."
