Fishtank
Our Literacy block is comprised of whole group, small group, and one-on-one instruction.
The Fishtank ELA curriculum aims to develop students into critical readers, writers, and thinkers. The resource aims to broaden their perspectives, enabling them to better understand themselves and the world around them. Fishtank ELA is designed around the following guiding principles:
Building knowledge to nurture critical thinking.
Centering diverse, relevant, and rigorous texts.
Prioritizing student voices and ideas to build agency.
Learning to write, writing to learn.
Preparing teachers to support students.
Research shows that you need to read to become a better reader and write to become a better writer.
