CAAT Language Arts

Students will be engaging in a writing workshop. Students will use all of the steps of the writing process including: prewriting, drafting, peer evaluating, revision, editing, and publishing.

Over the course of the year, students will continually add to their writing portfolios. The writing portfolio will include writing for multiple purposes and audiences and the revision of that writing.

Possible class assignments include:

1. Daily Bell ringers: Grammar, Usage, Mechanics, and Spelling Practice

2. Routine Writing (daily writing in response to a text or targeted skill)

3. Expository, argumentative, literary analysis, and narrative writing

4. Literature Study: Class novels, short stories, and independent reading
