Welcome to fifth grade English Language Arts! This series of 4 classes (Fall, Winter I, Winter II, & Spring) can be used as your student's sole ELA course for their year or as a supplement to another ELA class or curriculum. Students should have successfully completed 4th grade Language Arts. In this class, we will work through the third quarter of the 5th grade Common Core English language arts standards. Most weeks will have a lesson in spelling patterns, grammar, a story of the week, and a class read aloud. We will also work on one long-term writing project throughout the quarter. In between class meetings students will be encouraged to spend 20 minutes a day independently reading. Students will be expected to contribute to class conversations and work in partners frequently. I believe in creating a classroom community where all students feel valued and safe to make mistakes and celebrate each other's successes. My teaching style is "I do, we do, you do" through this method, I will guide student learning to meet each student where they are at and differentiate their learning. Sometimes students may not be able to finish the "you do" portion of our lessons. What is not completed in class will be expected to be completed for homework.
