Class Description:
 

Units covered in language arts this year will focus on improving reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills. Students will read a variety of texts, such as short stories, novellas, plays, poetry, narratives, informative pieces, as well as argumentative selections. We will also practice reading strategies throughout the year, so students will have confidence tackling the reading passages on the K-PREP. Not only will students be busy reading various genres this year, but they will also be incorporating writing into our weekly assignments.

Here are the units of study that will be covered:
  • Elements of literature
  • Reading strategies
  • Parts of speech
  • Sentence development
  • Figurative language (poetry)
  • Narrative reading/writing
  • Informative reading/writing
  • Argumentative reading/writing

    Congrats to the top readers on team perseverance! Students worked hard last 9 weeks, so we rewarded them by taking them to Cracker Barrel for lunch. They were so well behaved on the trip...I was proud to say that I was their teacher!
