We will explore reading and writing...- Learners will gain a better understanding of the writing process, how to gather and organize ideas, tell their story, interpret stories, and enhance their phonics skills in an environment that is dictated by them. The pace of the class moves and flows according to their level, engagement for the day, needs and goals.
