English Language Arts

The Elementary School recently purchased a common-core aligned reading program from Pearson called, Reading Street. The program offers a balance of complex fiction and informational texts. The increased rigor of the program will help students meet the new common-core standards.

This program has been divided up into units that consist of weekly stories. Each Monday, I will introduce students to their new story for the week. There will also be a set of spelling words, a grammar skill, and a comprehension skill that correspond with the weekly story. Students will take their end of week assessments on Friday. (This schedule may change when we have short weeks.)
