Expository Reading and Writing Curriculum

The Expository Reading and Writing Curriculum (ERWC) is a college preparatory (A-G), rhetoric-based English language arts course for grades 11 and 12 designed to develop academic literacy (advanced proficiency in rhetorical and analytical reading, writing, and thinking). The ERWC also offers a curriculum for grades 7-10, with at least four extended modules per grade level. Modules with designated English language development (ELD) are available for grades 9-12.

Riverside County Office of Education (RCOE) is proud to partner with California State University, San Bernardino as we work to serve the districts, schools, and teachers of the Riverside, Inyo, Mono, San Bernardino (RIMS) Counties region for your ERWC needs. 

Becoming an ERWC Trainer for RCOE

ERWC is always looking for great trainers! If you're interested in being a workshop trainer with Region 10 (Region 10 serves Riverside, Inyo, Mono, and San Bernardino Counties), please click the link below and fill out the interest survey, as this will let us know of your interest. Typically, ERWC trainers are secondary English teachers who have been teaching the ERWC course for 3-5 years. While this experience is preferred, it is not necessarily required. Please respond to the survey questions below based on your knowledge and experience. As trainer opportunities become available throughout the course of the school year, we will periodically review surveys and extend an invitation to connect. Please contact saflores@rcoe.us if you have any questions.
