Grado de EE. UU. 9
9th grade is the year to make it count! Everything students do end up on a high school transcript. At this point, it's time to leave behind the basic book summaries and five-paragraph essays and move up to the big leagues. In this class, we're going to cover grammar concurrent to reading literature and writing. Each week, class will start with a warm-up exercise to review/introduce concepts and allow students time to get into the classroom.  My teaching style is very conversational, but structured. My goal is to make class as interactive as possible, but cover the necessary topics. Discussion will be a big part of the class and all students will be encouraged, but not required to participate.

Two different types of homework will be assigned. The first type of homework is considered enrichment. It won’t be required, but it will help students reinforce concepts taught in class. The second type of homework will be necessary to get the most out of class (and receive a grade). Homework will be clearly labeled as enrichment or required. 

All assignments will be checked for completion. Writing assignments will receive feedback with 2-3 things the student did well on the essay. Then, I will share 3-4 ways they can revise their essay. Constructive feedback will include specific examples on how to improve their essay. For example, if I mention the thesis statement (topic sentence) could use a little adjustment, I will write possible examples of thesis statements for their essay. Students can submit essays for revision and editing as many times as they'd like. Final grades will be given at the end of the semester.

*This class is the first part of a full-year course. The spring semester course will take place on the same day and time as the fall semester for continuity.*

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
Licenciatura desde University of Central Arkansas
I have a bachelor's degree in writing and journalism. I worked as a journalist for over five years and won several awards during my career. A large portion of my college years was spent studying creative and essay writing. I have self-published a few fiction books and I am currently working on another. Before changing my degree to writing, my study focus was on education. This change has given me knowledge of teaching and writing. I have been teaching ELA since 2014, and I have been teaching on Outschool since 2020.
