Class Experience

US Grade 6 - 8
This is a self-paced (flex) (recorded) class there will be no live meetings. This class is listed in 2 parts. Each part stands alone and can be taken in any order. 

Each week in this self-paced class, Miss Jen will use fun and engaging slides and activities to help students learn grammar skills necessary for reading and writing. Each class will focus on one aspect of grammar to reach mastery by the end of class. Each week will consist of a mini-lesson video with engaging slides (about 15 minutes in length), a few Nearpod activities to practice the grammar skill, and a couple hands-on activities to practice using the skill. Activities may include: editing a paragraph, writing a paragraph, dissecting a sentence, worksheets, and more. Students will interact by engaging in discussions in the classroom, participating in Nearpod activities, and posting homework. Discussions may include interactive activities such as charades or scavenger hunts allowing students to interact with others. 

The teacher will interact with learners by replying to comments on posts and giving feedback on worksheets and assignments.
