Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 5

This class will help learners alleviate their ELA test taking anxiety by reading fun, interesting passages. Learners without upcoming assessments can practice their comprehension skills. I will read and annotate three of my favorite folktales that have appeared on archived (and recent!) standardized English Language Arts examinations. There is a nonfiction article for learners to analyze as well titled "Saving Snow Leopards" and a science fiction passage. As a dual certified ELA and Special Education teacher, I have assisted learners in achieving their desired scores on standardized examinations. Each video lesson focuses on one story and I review vocabulary terms to assist in learner comprehension. I also discuss the literary elements used in the story to help build learner understanding of literary terminology. 

Learners will be provided with a blank assessment to test their skills before watching the video lessons to check their multiple choice answers. This class focuses on reading comprehension and multiple choice analysis questions.

Learning Goals

Learners will identify basic literary elements such as setting, conflict, and characterization while reading 2 fiction short stories.

Learners will answer 8 multiple choice comprehension analysis questions for each text.
