Below I have listed the materials I believe will be needed to successfully complete this year's units . Any changes will be sent home via a Skyward message.
Skyward messages go out periodically as reminders or memos are needed. Please make sure your Skyward contact information is accurate. You can update that information in Skyward. Cheryl Roden is our tech guru. CherylRoden@wlcsd.org is how you can contact her with questions.
Email is the fastest way to contact me, maureenhoran@wlcsd.org, especially if you want me to call you. Just float me an email telling me your concern and whether or not you wish for a phone conversation.

Once there, English 10 is Level 10. Each "Lesson" represents the list being studied. Tests are roughly 10 -12 school days apart.
Grammar is studied almost daily. It includes capitalization, punctuation, parts of speech, parts of a sentence, sentence combining, and several common errors to avoid (with fixes).
The syllabus has more details about the course & classroom expectations.
