Welcome to Ms. T. Williams' class Mountaineers! We will use this space to learn together in new and exciting ways. I look forward to introducing you all to Honors ELA 8th Grade. This course is designed to involve the student in active learning; applying reading, writing, listening, speaking, and viewing skills that are aligned with the Common Core Standards. This course focuses on the following areas of study: literary comprehension, information & media literacy, reading skills & vocabulary acquisition, grammar & sentence construction, research, and the writing process.
