English/Language Arts III (9th grade) courses build upon students' prior knowledge of grammar, vocabulary, word usage, and the mechanics of writing and usually include the four aspects of language use: reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Typically, these courses introduce and define various genres of literature, with writing exercises often linked to reading selections. These courses enable students to progress from an advanced level of understanding of English vocabulary and complex grammatical structures to a more comprehensive grasp of various formal and informal styles of using Academic English, similar to their native speaking peers, in the context of English Language Arts. Per MSDE guidelines, only two ESOL courses can be used for English credit. This is one of the courses that may be offered for English credit.
