This is a sixth grade reading and writing course! I will be utilizing Spectrum Sixth Grade Reading to use for my reading passages. These will be reading passages and questions at the beginning 6th grade level. As the course progresses onward, the reading passages will become more advanced at the 6th grade level. However, a student does not have to start from the beginning. In addition, even if a story is missed, that is okay. Most stories stand alone and are independent from each other. In addition, students will be writing the questions and answers. We will work on this together. Writing the questions and the answers (in complete sentences), will enable the student to practice their penmanship, writing complete sentences, using correct capitalization, punctuation, and grammar! There will be a variety of reading passages from a variety of different topics -- to keep them interested! The class will meet each day (Monday-Friday) for one hour (60 minutes). I will teach via Zoom. The reading passages will be displayed so the students can read and follow along. There will be a lot of interaction back and forth. Thus, I will be able to understand if the students are reading/comprehending what was read. I am very patient in teaching! However, I do love to talk and garner feedback as well! Students will interact quite a bit! They will be reading and answering questions (I will not always be the talker). The student should have some working knowledge reading close to the 6th grade level. Even if the student is struggling in reading, or comprehension, this will be great practice. In addition, the student needs to be able to write (put letters down on paper).
Learning Goals
Students will improve their reading comprehension at the 6th grade level. With readings rich in vocabulary and a variety of comprehension questions, the student will increase his/her reading and comprehension skills. In addition, students will increase their writing skills as well (complete sentences, correct capitalization, punctuation, grammar). Students will be able to see the answers on the white board in order to write them down.

Supply List
Paper and pencil! The students will be writing the questions down. In addition, with support, they will write the answers to the questions from the white board on their papers as well. The answers will be in complete sentences. That will be great practice for them!
