每週 1-2 小時. Each week, learners will have a reading and writing assignment they should expect to spend one to two hours a week on, including watching the mini-lesson and instructional videos.等級
I do not believe grades are a real reflection of a learner's knowledge. What matters most is their growth- what their skills were like before and after the duration of the class. That said, I do offer grades and certificates of completion upon request.完成證書
Assessment will be a continuous, informal process in which I review submitted assignments then provide feedback and opportunities for extra practice, if necessary.我們無法翻譯此文,請刷新頁面並再試一次。

Beginner - Intermediate 等級
In this English Language Arts (ELA) class, learners will not have any live meetings. It is expected to take ten weeks to complete. I will be available for submission and feedback via messaging. Once I receive an assignment, I will provide feedback by the following Sunday (Central Time). Furthermore, I will be available daily for questions, typically responding within twenty-four hours. The schedule is described in the syllabus section. This class will use short stories to help develop and refine reading comprehension skills, along with writing assignments- mostly reading comprehension questions and creative writing. In this class, each week we will focus on a different skill with learners completing various tasks. They will: -Watch an approximately 15 minute lecture video of our weekly mini-lesson. -Complete one assignment over the weekly skill. This will most often involve reading texts and writing responses, but sometimes videos may be substituted for reading passages. A lot of these assignments will empower students to choose how to demonstrate what they have learned. If learners would like to demonstrate their use of the weekly skill in a way other than what is listed in the schedule, I am open to ideas. The greatest part of flex classes is they allow individual customization! *Note: With the transition from Flex to Self-Paced, there is no longer a game to play due to expiration dates. Certificates of completion are available upon request. Personalized feedback will be provided with submitted assignments. I look over all submissions on Sunday evenings, so expect feedback by then. If learners are struggling with any of the skills, I can also provide additional practice/suggestions that learners can do at home with their grownups, but I will not offer feedback for that work. Daily English Language Arts Skills Practiced in this class include but are not limited to: -Expression and comprehension - The interconnected nature of listening, speaking, reading, writing, and thinking - Developing and sustaining foundational language skills -Inquiry -Critical thinking and analysis -Literacy -Building connections using prior knowledge -Creating relationships among ideas

學習需求
Through my teaching experience, I have worked with autistic learners, as well as those with ADHD and Dyslexia in an academic setting. I try my best to meet learners where they are by scaffolding- providing supports and room for growth.
父母的引導和規範
As always, parental guidance is advised. Your learner can submit their assignments via messages, or they may prefer to use Google Docs.
In week 6, we read a poem called "Cremation of Sam McGee," written by Robert Service. It is about a dangerous journey through the cold, and a lust for gold. There's a death and cremation, then a ghost is seen. This is not presented in a scary light, however, but rather a somewhat happy or content one. It explores themes of greed and suffering due to that greed.
In week 7, we read "The Elevator," which is about a menacing-looking, mysterious lady. The lady's intentions are left open-ended with no real resolution to the story.
In Week 9, we watch an award-winning short film called "Negative Space," in which the narrator explores his relationship with his father, who we find out is deceased.
供應清單
