Welcome to Third-Grade English Language Arts!

In this fun and interactive English Language Arts class, students will work on third-grade writing, reading, and grammar skills through creative and engaging activities. Each week will focus on a different aspect of third-grade English Language Arts.

This class works great for homeschoolers or as a supplement for public school learners!

🔹 Twice Weekly Live Meetings:  We will meet twice a week to learn together.

🔹 Optional Homework:  Students will be given optional homework each week. This homework will build on the class content and reinforce our learning.

During the writing weeks, students will receive comprehensive instructions along with a creative writing component to inspire their imaginations. 

Our reading classes will be dedicated to reading, analyzing texts, and participating in discussions, with a reduced emphasis on writing during these weeks. 

We will teach grammar utilizing various engaging activities and practical examples. 

Let's learn and have fun together! 🎉

🌟This is an inclusive class and all learners are welcome.  

The reading level for this class is Reading A to Z Level Q-T or 660L-940L.  If you are not sure if this is a good fit for your learner, please reach out!
