Language Arts 4

The literature-based language arts program helps students enjoy a variety of genres (realistic fiction, fantasy, historical fiction, formal letters, descriptive, non-fiction, poetry, personal narratives) while learning to love reading. Daily writing activities, from journaling to research reports, encourage following the writing process and using self/peer editing.

Students are encouraged to offer and accept constructive criticism while attempting to evaluate others’ ideas and opinions objectively. Research skills are taught by guided practice. Grammar skills are practiced for effective writing
