English II- Academic

English II-Academic

Welcome to Mr. Livengood's Academic English class.

On this page, you will find the course syllabus, some general rubrics for writing assignments, and links to a variety of websites that we will use frequently over the course of the year.

Helpful links:
OWL/Purdue- I regularly refer to this web resource during our practice of writing.  You will find information on MLA formatting, citation, grammar, and subject-specific writing tasks.  It is my expectation that all essays are correctly MLA-formatted and that students utilize this resource for editing and revision of drafts.

Windham High School Library Webpage- Let's face it: we have a great library and librarian!  This web source hosts several tools that we will use throughout the year, particularly during research projects.  You can find databases, such as Academic Search Complete, encyclopedias, NoodleTools, and many helpful tutorials that can guide you through the research process.
