An effective English language arts and literacy curriculum:
· Holds high expectations for all students
· Builds on the language, experiences, knowledge, and interest that students bring to school
· Develops students’ oral language and literacy through appropriately challenging learning
· Provides explicit skill instruction in reading and writing
· Draws on literature to develop students literary understanding of their own literary heritage and culture
· Draws on informational texts and multimedia to build academic vocabulary and strong content knowledge
· Emphasizes writing arguments, explanatory/informative texts, and narratives
· Develops thinking and language through interactive learning
· Reaches out to families and communities to sustain a literate society
