M/J Language Arts 2
Middle School


New Course Credit : $650 (Comprehensive Course, 120 Hours)


Everybody uses words, but some do it better than others.  It’s how politicians get elected, how stores sell their products, and how people express their feelings.  There are techniques and strategies for doing it well, and there is Language Arts 2 to help you do it well too.

In this course, you will read and listen to other people’s words.  You will analyze what they are saying and how they are saying it.  You will read everything from newspapers to novels.  Just as important, you will discover your own ability to use words.  You will use strategies to create clear and effective written messages.  You will learn how to organize and deliver oral presentations.  And throughout the course, you will keep a Discovery Log that contains every word you have written.

Successful people know what words can do for them.  After taking this course, so will you.
