ESLI 012 - Writing and Grammar 3

3 credits
In Writing and Grammar 3, students develop academic, personal, and creative writing skills through daily journaling, in-class writing exercises, and formal essays at an intermediate level. Students identify and revise (with some assistance) grammatical errors in their writing. Beginner to intermediate grammar will be mastered through in-class grammar exercises, online exercises, and quizzes. Students demonstrate knowledge and ability to write paragraphs and basic essays consisting of, but not limited to the following: a thesis statement, organizational sentences, body paragraphs (with topic sentences and clear supporting sentences), and a conclusion. Students will write short analytical reader-response paragraphs integrating author’s thesis with students’ own responses utilizing MLA in-text documentation. Upon completion of Writing and Grammar 3, these skills will be mastered at an intermediate level.
