Publisher's Synopsis
This book was written to help prepare pre-service English teachers for the Florida Teacher Certification Exam for English 6-12. This textbook was developed for my university students over a course of several years and has proven invaluable for preparation (and passing) the secondary level English teacher certification exam. This text offers a complete review of the current high-school English curriculum in the areas of American, British, Multicultural, and Young Adult literature, literary and poetic elements, basic grammar & spelling rules, methods and strategies for teaching reading comprehension, literature interpretation, & writing as well as speech & business communication. This text includes 90 multiple-choice practice exam questions and four practice essay response prompts.
