English Language Arts

Welcome to 7th grade ELA at Raytown Middle School

Class Overview

Hello and welcome to ELA with Mr. William Emery.

In Reading we will learn about different perspectives and cultures through a variety of diverse reading selections. Students will enhance their critical thinking skills and expand their vocabulary and comprehension skills.

In English students will take their knowledge of writing and the English language and expand upon it. Students will use all stages of the writing process to develop their editing skills and produce finished pieces of writing. Students will practice three types of essays: narrative, informative, argumentative.
