Intermediate Level
In this 8 week course, students will learn about ancient times by diving deep into literature. They will travel back in time as they read level text and work on comprehension skills. You can see an outline on the class syllabus. It will tell you what story we are reading for the week and what compression skill we are covering. I encourage participation. Class begins promptly at the start and we will begin by going over vocabulary, then reading the story, and working on the comprehension skill. I do ask questions and encourage students to ask questions. They all will have a chance to read in class. I look forward to seeing your child in class!
