US Grade 3 - 4
This English Language Arts pod will meet weekly to cover different grade 4 curriculum expectations. Each class will include a mini lesson on a specific topic and then learners will have the opportunity to practice, work together and brainstorm connections. There will be plenty of hands on writing opportunities as well as shared, guided and independent components in this course. The outline and topics are listed below, however this is subject to change slightly if I feel the group needs more time on a given topic. Learners should also have a journal to bring each week to work on independent writing if there is leftover time in class.
