Course syllabus can be found here. Classroom supply list is here (thanks for your donations!). Semester units will be posted as we go.
For grammar assistance outside of class, two of my favorite resources are ChompChomp.com and The OWL at Purdue. You can find answers to basic grammar and writing questions on ChompChomp. The OWL will assist you with MLA and APA formatting and style as you make your way through high school and college.
