Grade 7 students deepen literary analysis with a focus on how authors build meaning: point of view (omniscient, limited, unreliable), internal and external conflict, suspense and climax, irony, flashback and foreshadowing. In poetry they study forms such as ballad, sonnet, lyric and haiku and types of rhyme. They read classic short stories, novels of science fiction and identity, autobiographies, and great speeches from two world wars, then study Shakespeare's The Tempest with its soliloquies and asides. Writing and language work continues with argument, research, Greek and Latin roots and Latin phrases used in English.
