주당 2-4시간. Because this is a semester-long course, students will have homework every week. This could include reading and/or writing practice. Worksheets, handouts, and links to outside programs (such as Kahoots or Quizlet) for homework will be posted on the classroom page.
학습 평가
There are two comprehensive writing checkpoints during the course: week 6 and week 13. Writing will also be assessed throughout the course through submitted homework. Reading comprehension will be assessed weekly based on the student's participation and comprehension of the week's literary analysis topics. There may also be homework assigned for our literature study (varies depending on the reading for the week).

미국 7학년 - 8학년 학년
Looking for a 7th/8th-grade level English Language Arts course that offers your child the opportunity to explore some of literature's greatest works while encouraging strong writing habits using an award-winning and highly regarded writing curriculum?
(It's true! You can read more about that here:  https://iew.com/intro-iew/awards and https://iew.com/intro-iew/testimonials)

If you said "yes", keep reading!
(If you said "no" and are looking for your 5th or 6th grader, please use this link: https://outschool.com/classes/5th6th-literature-and-writing-composition-english-language-arts-66NhfF99?usid=7kVTvRl1&signup=true&utm_campaign=share_activity_link)

In this 16-week semester-long course, your child will have the opportunity to develop writing skills to "become confident and competent communicators and thinkers" using classic literature as the guide. Reading and writing are best learned together, so in this course, we will be using the books that we read as our writing practice for consistency and to develop a deeper understanding of the material.

Each week, twice a week, we will split the class into two parts. The first half of the class will include an introduction to the day's writing skills. We will use a passage or idea from our current reading when applicable. The second half of the class will be spent in a Socratic discussion focusing on one of the five elements of a story. This part is fun! Students will be given follow-up homework to reinforce new ideas and work toward mastery. 

This is not a lecture-based course! While there are times when lecturing is appropriate, the success of this course depends on class participation. Yes, even in writing. Each week, students will be engaged in Socratic discussions and will be active contributors during the step-by-step writing process.

Book 1: The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster 
Book 2: The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett

Book 4: Little Women by Louisa May Alcott 

*Students are expected to come to class prepared with the reading completed before the first week of discussion. Short stories and poems for weeks one to four will be posted on the classroom page. Beginning in week four, students will need to read at home in order to participate successfully in Socratic discussions. This gives students at least three weeks to read each book before discussing it.

*Writing methodology taught using the Institute for Excellence in Writing’s Style and Structure Writing Method. I am a registered instructor with IEW. (Link for verification: https://iew.com/events-classes/instructors/find-accredited-instructor/330449)
*Literature methodology adapted from Teaching with the Classics. Please note that all books and topics covered will be secular.

*Please note that there are 32 classes in total (16 weeks, 2 classes per week). Each class = $16 per meeting.

*This course is not graded unless specifically requested by a parent/guardian.

학습 목표

Writing Goals:
*IEW Units 1 & 2 - Students will learn how to create "keyword outlines" and develop this skill into creating their own outlines. From there, students will be able to take their outlines and begin creating paragraphs.
*IEW Unit 3 - Students will be able to organize a story through one, two, and three paragraph essays. During the essay writing process, students will be introduced to multiple "dress-ups" (who/which, quality adjectives, strong verbs, "-ly" words, because, wwwasia) that will strengthen their writing skills and make them better writers. We will be using fiction for this section of the class.
*IEW Unit 4 - Students will learn how to create a report using a single source. During this part of the course, we will be focusing on nonfiction information. This could include an author's background, the time period or major event from one of our books.

Reading Goals:
*Create a love, or at least an appreciation, for reading literature.
*Students should be able to recognize, analyze, and understand the five basic elements of a story: conflict, plot, setting, character, and theme.
*Students will be able to present and communicate their ideas regarding the books they've read and share their opinions in a Socratic seminar.

그 외 세부 사항

학부모 가이드
At this age, it is common for students to still need help and direction at home for writing. That's okay! In this class, I encourage parental guidance when students are working at home. Some students may struggle at the beginning with balancing the concepts of class and the physical act of writing. Please know that it is perfectly fine if your child wants to dictate to you as they learn. The goal at this age is to understand the concepts. Mastery comes with continuous practice and patience as each child moves at his/her own pace. If at any point during the class you feel that your child is falling behind or needs additional help, please feel free to reach out to me directly so we can work out a plan. Reading should be done regularly so that your child does not feel overwhelmed with having to read large amounts during one or two sittings. I will post the chapters to read in the classroom based upon what I feel is a manageable amount for this age group. If your child struggles reading on his/her own or needs extra encouragement when reading, I suggest reading the books together or listening to an audiobook while following along.
수업 자료
Paper, writing utensils, and access at least one form of a writing application (Google Docs or MS Word).

All worksheets, handouts, and/or links will be sent via the classroom page as needed.

Now about the books... 

As a homeschooling mom myself, I understand the importance of finding books that won't break the bank. That's why I made it a priority to choose books that have multiple options or discounted versions (usually e-reader). Some books may even be downloaded for free online via Project Gutenberg (https://www.gutenberg.org/) or via the Internet Archive, a non-profit online library (https://archive.org/). Most of the books can be found at your local library. You can also reach out to your local librarian about setting up Libby or Overdrive to read free digital books on your e-reader.
Please make sure that you choose the version that is best for you and your child. With many versions and translations being made from the older works we will be covering there may be slight differences in the text but not in the overall theme or discussion. The goal isn't to create a library full of books that your child only reads once. Instead, it's more important that your child is able to ask questions, ponder new ideas, and form their own intelligent theories about the works that they read. With that said, if they do fall in love with a book be sure to get them a copy that they can read again and again.

학사 학위 영어 University of Tennessee - Knoxville에서
As a lifelong learner, I too am always striving for growth. After years of using the IEW curriculum, I decided I wanted to share what I had learned with others and became a registered instructor with IEW. (Link for verification: https://iew.com/events-classes/instructors/find-accredited-instructor/330449) I have also been a tutor (teacher) for a local classical co-op, studied through literature seminars, and attended practicums to enhance my own reading and writing knowledge. 
I am also a certified TESOL/TEFL/EYL teacher, professional writer, beta reader, proofreader, editor, and homeschool mom. I have a love for the English language (I have the BA in English to prove it), the smell of new books, and transferring ideas from mind to paper. My goal is to promote a love of learning while offering a safe and fun environment. I truly have a passion for reading and writing and would love to share my knowledge and experience with your children.
