Class Experience

US Grade 4 - 6
This class is jam packed with lessons and interactive activities to build ALL essential English Language Arts skills. Each week we focus on a different skill. A lesson is presented on that skill, we practice the skill together, then learners will practice the skill independently on Nearpod slides. The teacher will provide feedback as needed while students complete the activity for the day.  See below for the expansive list of Language Arts skills covered in this ongoing class.

Occasionally, the teacher for this class may not be able to teach and a substitute teacher from the organization will take her place. Only teachers trained to teach this class will serve as a possible substitute for the class. A message will be posted in the Outschool classroom before the class takes place in the event a substitute will be teaching. I am happy to offer a refund to any learner who prefers not to attend the class with a substitute. Please send a message through Outschool in that event and I will issue a refund. Thank you!
