オーラル・コミュニケーション４

授業テーマ	This class is subtitled Language through Literature 2; we study language and literature together in order to develop knowledge and ability in both.
授業のねらい・到達目標	By actively engaging in reading, writing, speaking and listening tasks that focus on literary works, students will increase their vocabularies and strengthen their abilities to speak and write about more complex things.
授業の方法	Classes will resemble those of the Spring Semester, but will focus more on close reading, interpreting, and responding to literary texts. Students will complete various writing tasks, short presentations, dramatizations, and essays in order to deepen their understanding of the stories and the important issues they raise. In turn, this will strengthen students’ overall English abilities, as well as prepare them for more advanced English literature seminars.
