In 8th grade English, the focus shifts away from the fundamentals and into more comprehensive skills, such as the analysis of literature and the creation of essays. My teaching approach is both interactive and structured, fostering open dialogue while still covering all necessary topics. Everyone will be invited to take part in the discussion, though not required to do so. When applicable, I will give students hands-on assistance with the different concepts we are working on. 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.* Concepts covered in this class: - Elements of literature - Annotating - Note-taking - Research - Analyzing literature - Literary Analysis - Types of conflict - Context clues - Autobiography, biography, and memoir - Character profiles - MLA format - Citations - Biographical narrative essay

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.
