Honors ClassesHonors Classes Tennessee has outlined a standard for
honors classes so that the parents, teachers, and students can clearly see what makes “honors” courses different from standard college prep courses.
Most of the new standards have to do with the amount of responsibility and choice granted to honors students.
I have listed several activities that students will be involved in that meet the criteria for honors courses in your child’s syllabus.
Students will review:
◦Greetings and introductions◦How to describe others◦How to express wants and needs◦How to say what they like and don’t like◦How to say the date and tell time◦How to describe the weather◦Family vocabulary◦Food vocabulary and how to order in a
restaurant◦How to shop or discuss costs
