English: ENG 2L
In this course, students focus on extending their literacy and communication skills to prepare for success
in their daily lives, in the workplace, in the English, Grade 11, Workplace Preparation course, or in the
English: Contemporary Aboriginal Voices, Grade 11, Workplace Preparation course. The course is organized by strands that extend listening and talking skills, reading and viewing skills, and writing skills. In all strands, the focus is on refining foundational literacy skills and on using language clearly and accurately in a variety of authentic contexts. Students build on their strategies and engage in the processes involved in talking, listening, reading, viewing, writing, and thinking. Students reflect regularly upon their growth in these areas.
