We give specific and authentic feedback on student writing through the teacher tab of the classroom and on Google Docs. Writing is formally assessed.等級
Letter grades can be controversial, so it is good to know how we approach grading ahead of time. As I (Karen Lemons) homeschooled my children without formal tests and grades, they had difficulty adjusting to college. I realized that as a teacher, I need to give tests! Further, students on Outschool are more likely to complete their work on time if there are grades. They need to learn to perform under a little pressure, and this will bring out the best in them! Therefore, all students are formally graded, and parents have access to those grades.等級

𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞: 😍 This is one of our most popular, special classes on Outschool: The Essentials! 💥 THEME: Check Language Arts off your list of subjects to teach and get individualized grading and feedback in this complete English course. This semester-long English class builds a foundation for learning as students master the essentials. This is the must-take class for middle school English students and emphasizes essay writing, Socratic Seminars, and developing a love of reading. This is ideal for 7th or 8th-grade learners; however, we often have advanced 6th-graders and young 9th-graders. As students become proficient with reading, writing, and communication skills, their confidence soars, and they are prepared for future success in all areas of study. We love this semester because skill development is rapid! We start fast, cruise through the middle, and finish strong. And it is a little hard to say goodbye at the end of the semester. 📷 SNAPSHOT OF OUR DAILY ACTIVITIES: -Catching up with life -Grammar and sentence work with feedback -Students report on their daily reading -Student gives a Book Talk -Direct teaching with modeling -Workshop time with immediate feedback to each student -Students get homework 🔥 SNAPSHOT OF STUDENT OUTPUT: 𝗚𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗦𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗪𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗿: 1 full-length, beautiful essay 3 opinion pieces 1 illustrated fable Multiple summaries 24 pages of grammar 24 in-class writing exercises with immediate teacher feedback 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗟𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹, 𝗩𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗯𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿𝘆, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽 𝗮 𝗟𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸𝘀: 4-8 novels of their choice Multiple nonfiction pieces, fables, opinion pieces, and short stories.

Each English teacher is qualified and trained and is likely already. teaching another section of this class. This continuity for learners is a great benefit. We also have ongoing professional development because our teachers are lifelong learners themselves. You are in good hands with Lemons-Aid Learning. 💰 Scroll to the bottom of this page to see our commitment to you. We promise to teach this class all semester! In other classes that offer weekly payments, teachers may cancel the class if enrollment falls below the minimum. We don't do that. 🤜 🍋 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙇𝙚𝙢𝙤𝙣𝙨-𝘼𝙞𝙙 𝙒𝙖𝙮 🍋 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐋𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐬-𝐀𝐢𝐝, 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐲, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬!

We follow best practices in this area with how we design class time, assignments, and routines. According to Pennington Publishing, effective writing feedback (or grading) is: • Specific, not general • Immediate, not postponed • Routine with a revision / feedback cycle • Explanatory • The right amount • Targeted to the most critical issues • Varied (written, audio, and video comments) • Holding students accountable 👩🏫 YOUR TEACHER & A FREE CLASS: Nervous about the commitment to an entire semester? We offer a little taste in a reading comprehension class. If you take that class and enroll in this one, we will credit you the tuition you paid for the reading class, essentially getting it for free. You just need to send an email asking for it, so we don't miss it!

This is helpful for the pocketbook! However, students can unenroll if their schedule changes. If a class falls below the minimum enrollment, teachers may cancel it, leaving remaining learners and their parents in the lurch for a class! We want to offer a consistent learning experience in our semester courses, so we commit to running the course all semester, and learners commit to remaining enrolled. We charge less per class in semester classes because of the upfront investment. A guaranteed semester allows us to build on content and do long-range projects and essays. It also allows us to build a special community of learners—and it’s a little hard to say goodbye at the end! We also offer ongoing middle school English classes, which are wonderful—just different. Hopefully, this helps you understand how our semester classes differ from others that offer weekly payments.
