I am so excited to teach English Language Arts to your children this year! The first few weeks of school are primarily setting routines, getting to know the students as learners and people, and completing required assessments!
I am thrilled to be teaching reading with everyone again this year! It is going to be a fantastic year.
Our writing instruction will be with writing narratives. We will be discussing leads and vocabulary. We want to write "Read-On" stories, not "Put Back" ones. We will also focus on description with writing not telling. There are some fun activities to be done with this so I can't wait to begin.
Spelling will begin the second week. I will have 3-4 groups according to where children's skills lay. Grammar will begin with sentence types, subject predicate, run ons/fragments and then parts of speech.
In Reading, we will begin with character traits, plot and a little bit of theme. Home book projects will be assigned beginning in October.
