Multigenre Reading & Writing 5 (RW 150)
In this two-hour course, students are immersed in different types (“genres”) of reading & writing and analyze how
tone, structure and vocabulary are used. This expressive writing course gives students the freedom to select a
topic/theme which personally engages them and which they develop through various genres of writing. Students
complete a multigenre project, which includes a collection of writings. This course teaches students how to
expand their writing skills, broaden their range of acceptance and appreciation for different genres, and use their
creativity to express themselves in a way that is personally meaningful. The focus is on expressive rather than
expository writing.
