Welcome to our Language Arts and Block 2 class!
I am honored to be a teacher at Robinson Middle School and feel fortunate to have you in my class. We will explore Kansas Standards for English Language Arts for 7th grade language arts, writing, and literature.
We will read literature novels, short stories, plays, poetry, and informational selections from online sources, articles, magazines, and speeches. You can write for fun but intentionally work through personal narratives, argumentative essays, research, and informational articles.
My three goals for you are to develop a love of learning, become an independent thinker, and be a lifelong learner. To help you reach these goals I have carefully planned our lessons that are inspirational and interesting.
I deeply care about your success in my class. I am available during my plan (3rd hour) for advice or assistance.
We Got This!!! - Ms. P

Reminders:
Students have access to the Kansas library. The app is located on their iPad: Libby and Cloud Library. Please encourage them to read online or read their library book for 30-45 minutes daily.
😀*To avoid distractions - I'm a huge fan of detaching from technology - I highly recommend students powering off their technology and use a traditional means of literacy (library book, magazine).
