週あたり 1-2 時間. Outside reading is required for this class. A chapter will be covered in most class periods. Comprehension questions will also be completed. There are several quizzes to be completed at home. Three writing pieces (expository, persuasive, and fantasy narrative) will be completed. There will be other enrichment activities to deepen understanding of the story, most of which will involve writing. Depending on how swiftly a student works, the outside work should be completed by most students in 1-1.5 hours for each class meeting.

If you like adventure and quality, classic literature, this class is for you!  We will be doing an in-depth, chapter-by-chapter reading of King Arthur and His Knights of the Round Table outside of class and analyzing the story together in class.  Some portions of the chapter will be re-read aloud in class to practice fluency and dramatic expression.  Discussion is such an important part of connecting to a story and interactive, teacher-led discussion and dissection of story and writing elements will be the focuses of this class.  We will also be reviewing key vocabulary and comprehension questions for each chapter.  This advanced literature class is intended to be the bulk of your child's literature and writing instruction for the semester.  Students will be writing well-constructed answers to comprehension questions and will also have additional assignments that involve creative, expository, and persuasive writing. I am delighted to meet with students for extra, one-on-one editing sessions after a writing piece is completed.  There will be optional enrichment activities offered for students that enjoy more extension.  

I will use slideshow presentations and other apps (like Kahoot!) within class to facilitate meaningful discussion and review.  Students will be expected to read the assigned chapter before class, as well as complete the comprehension questions outside of class.  Any question that your child is confused about can be saved to discuss during class.  We are in this to learn together!  The vocabulary and key words to know for the next chapter will be covered at the end of class in preparation for reading and answering the questions for the next class.  Most weeks, two chapters will be covered with quizzes and a final test given throughout the semester.  This schedule will change somewhat based on learner needs and extra activities for extension based on pacing but should stay fairly close to this plan:

It will not be the focus of our discussion and I will not be dwelling on it at all but this book does involve infidelity between two of the characters in the story. There is also time-period related violence frequently involving Middle Age weapons.

I am a certified teacher who has 7 years of experience in the classroom, both in public school and in a classical school.  I have 6 years of experience homeschooling.  I have a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education and a Master's Degree in Library Media Science Education
