Class Experience

US Grade 8
Wild and Unstructured Learning's 8th Grade Full Year English and Spelling is an immersive and interactive learning experience that makes reading, writing, grammar, and spelling enjoyable for 8th graders. It fosters a sense of curiosity and creativity while providing a solid foundation in language skills for future academic success. Learners will read grade level stories, articles, and poems. These texts are rich in vocabulary and designed to challenge and inspire young readers. Students will also create and write stories, essays, and poems. Grammar and spelling lessons are transformed into exciting games and activities. Learners will receive feedback from the teacher and peers, fostering a collaborative and supportive learning environment. There will be homework for extra reading, writing, grammar, and spelling practice each week. 

If you need financial help please reach out and inquire if we have any scholarship spots available.  

Our lessons are always engaging because education is more than just academics, it is also about the social interactions you have while learning. Our classes include interactive discussions and we use games and other hands-on activities to engage every child in their learning. All of our classes are taught in a 100% inclusive and child-led environment. Our teachers are always inclusive of every child and adapt their teaching style to keep high levels of engagement and progression.
