Reading Comprehension

Reading is a continued priority in grades 2-12. Emphasis is placed on learning about words, reading text with fluency and expression, and learning comprehension strategies. Word Study: Grade Appropriate Spelling & Vocabulary Development is included in this course. The student will read a variety of fiction and nonfiction texts, which relate to all areas of the curriculum.

Language Arts: Writing

The Language Arts curriculum is designed to address those modules appropriate for the child's age and grade.  The Writing class includes daily online assignments as well as a once weekly conference workshop via Skype. Students will use the online resources planned each week to complete assignments, guided lessons, and assessment activities. Grammar Mechanics: The student will edit writing for correct grammar, capitalization, spelling, punctuation, sentence structure, and paragraphing. During the weekly conference, students will work one-on-one with me on their writing assignments and projects, with a focus on the writing process, editing, proofreading, revising drafts, and producing the final draft.
