Description
Class Experience
In this semester-long course, your child will have the opportunity to develop writing skills to become confident and competent communicators and thinkers. Students will read to build knowledge about the rainforest and analyze the author's craft in narrative writing to build proficiency in writing first person narratives about the rainforest. Skills Focus: In Unit 1, they build background knowledge on biodiversity in the rainforest and rainforest deforestation to understand why scientists,...
Reading: CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.5.1-Quote accurately from a text when explaining what the text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text. CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.5.4- Determine the meaning of general academic and domain-specific words and phrases in a text relevant to a grade 5 topic or subject area. Writing: CSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.5.2- Write informative/explanatory texts to examine a topic and convey ideas and information clearly. CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.5.3- Write narratives to develop real or imagined experiences or events using effective technique, descriptive details, and clear event sequences.

The teacher facilitating this class has more than 7 years of teaching experience in humanities classrooms. The teacher holds multiple subject teaching credential with EL authorization that supports students that are English Language Learners and are able to implement supplemental material to meet all students learning needs.
Because this is a semester-long course, students will have homework every week. This could include reading and/or writing practice. Worksheets, handouts, and links to outside programs (such as Kahoot or Nearpod) for homework will be posted on the classroom page.
~ All worksheets, handouts, and/or links will be sent via the classroom page as needed. ~ pen/pencil/paper ~ students may take notes on their own digital device
There are two comprehensive writing checkpoints during the course: week 6 and week 13. Writing will also be assessed throughout the course through submitted homework. Reading comprehension will be assessed weekly based on the student's participation and comprehension of the week's literary analysis topics. There may also be homework assigned for our literature study (varies depending on the reading for the week).
1 hour 20 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 1 - 2 hours per week outside of class.
Reading should be done regularly so that your child does not feel overwhelmed with having to read large amounts during one or two sittings. I will post the chapters to read in the classroom-based upon what I feel is a manageable amount for this age group. If your child struggles reading on his/her own or needs extra encouragement when reading, I suggest reading the books together or listening to an audiobook while following along. Content Warning: As we study literature students will engage with stories from different cultures, religions, and times. Some of these stories may contain depictions of violence, wars, colonization, disease, current events, and death. All subjects and topics will be covered in a manner that is as age-appropriate as possible, but some learners may be especially sensitive to these topics. In accordance with Outschool policy, all classroom discussion and teaching will be presented from a secular perspective. External Resource: Students do not need to create an account to access Nearpod and Kahoot. The teacher will post the Nearpod and Kahoot links in the Outschool platform to access during class. The teacher will also be sharing their screen during the sessions.
