In this English Language Arts (ELA) writing class, we will read mentor texts to help illustrate how horror characteristics are used within the genre. The mentor texts will also act as different examples of subgenres within the horror genre, such as thriller (a human is the antagonist), supernatural, gothic, and sci-fi. There will also be a short lecture video, about fifteen minutes long, to watch with each lesson, in addition to the text and two writing activities. Specifics are provided in the syllabus. Learners will not have any live meetings, and will reference the pre-recorded lecture videos in the classroom. Certificates of completion and grades are available upon request. Feedback is provided at the end of the week, typically Sundays. If work has not been submitted by Sunday, then feedback should be expected by the following Sunday.

Necesidades de aprendizaje
I have the experience to support unique learning needs, we all have them, after all. Learning is not one size fits all. I provide support and scaffolding within the classroom to help learners grow.
Orientación para padres
Some of the material read and watched may be scary for some learners, so parental discretion is advised. Most of the stories feature death and mild violence. For example, "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" features a supernatural being that tries to attack the protagonist. In "The Tell-Tale Heart" by Edgar Allan Poe, the narrator is dealing with his guilt after committing a murder. Multiple characters in "Frankenstein" die, including a boy. These tragedies contribute to the story, however, and allow for in-depth analysis of characters, as well as character development, such as the case with Frankenstein. The Creature becomes the way he is out of his own loneliness and treatment by others.
Lista de útiles escolares
All necessary materials will be provided, including worksheets and reading passages. Videos will be embedded in the classroom for viewing. Optional materials your learners may want include but are not limited to: writing utensils, paper, and printed assignments.
