Expository Composition
During this second semester, we will analyze expository forms of writing. In all of these forms of writing, the author is explaining ideas about a certain topic, or exposing information to the reader in an organized coherent manner with the end goal of enlightening his/her audience with ideas the reader perhaps would not have considered. Because most of the information that we read is, in one form or another, an example of exposition, we will invest our attention to examining professional writers’ styles, techniques, and strategies.
What books are we using? We will use materials provided by our school district that has been organized around themes for young adults. However, supplemental reading material (other readings not in our book) may be added from time to time.
