If you've never had to create a syllabus to give secondary ELA students and parents at Back to School night (or if you just want to see what someone else does with theirs), check out my example ELA4 (senior English; grade 12 U.S.).

Just make a copy, and customize.https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-7VyDdFN7Lzni8kd0Wrq9WEmx2whKysGz-f9CHeoAYU/edit?usp=sharing
