學習目標
In this 4th grade Language Arts (FLEX) course, students will improve their independent reading, comprehension, and writing skills by means of the five literature books, the two-week poetry unit, weekly vocabulary, grammar, and writing lessons.
Specifically, by the end of this course, students will have improved both their oral and written communication skills.其他詳情
父母的引導和規範
To assist you in discussing these books with your learner, I will share a list of general book discussion questions that can be used by you and your student. These questions are in addition to the homework comprehension questions and are intended to assist you, as the teacher at home, in helping your learner better understand what they are reading.
In this course, your student will be reading five age-appropriate novels, and completing comprehension questions, and grammar assignments.
My Father's Dragon is the imaginary story of a boy who rescues a baby dragon from a group of unkind animals. Instead of reflecting on the animal's unkind choices, our hero helps each animal in turn, and through this process rescues the baby dragon.
Discussion Focus: We will enjoy discussing the imaginary factors in the story such as talking animals, unique solutions to their problems, as well as the bravery of Elmer, our hero. Additionally, we will focus on the kind and helpful choices of our hero.
The book Twenty and Ten is based on the true story of twenty children and their teacher, who show kindness and compassion as they shelter and protect ten child refugees during World War II. This book is set in France and has an excellent underlying theme of kindness and courage.
Literary Focus: Following a simple age-appropriate introduction to World War II (focused mainly on Germany's invasion of other countries), we will move into how the twenty children and their teacher show sacrificial kindness and compassion to the ten refugee children. Toward the end of this book, the students and I will discuss simple everyday scenarios in which we can show kindness to others. These will include, providing food for someone who has none, helping neighbors and lost animals, and assisting our own families as we show kindness to others.
The book The 21 Balloons is a fictional tale crafted around the true 1883 Krakatoa volcanic eruption. The story bears no resemblance to the actual event, but rather creates a fictional settlement on the Island of Krakatoa and focuses on the creativity with which it was settled. The story begins with Professor Sherman being rescued by a passing freighter following his exciting departure from San Francisco in a balloon. His adventures, or should I say, misadventures find him crash landing on the Island of Krakatoa and being rescued by its 80 eccentric citizens. The story is told in retrospect as Professor Sherman recounts his adventures for the Western American Explorers' Club of San Francisco.
Literary Focus: Following a simple recounting of the actual 1883 Krakatoa volcanic eruption, students will be guided through discussion surrounding the misadventures of Professor Sherman and the creative lifestyle in which the fictional eccentric Krakatoan citizens live. They have grand homes with unusual inventions and lots and lots of diamonds found in the fictional volcano. Through our discussion of this rollicking tale, we will focus on acceptance of one another no matter the circumstances. The citizens of Krakatoa offer unlimited hospitality to Professor Sherman and we will focus strongly on this character development.
The book James and the Giant Peach is the fictional tale of a boy, a giant peach, and 6 oversized insects who embark on exciting adventures. James, an orphan, living with his unkind aunts, finds himself climbing into a giant peach where he discovers the kind insects who live there. James, as the hero of our story, shows kindness and consideration for the insects even though he has not received kindness from his aunts.
Language Alert: In chapter 27 of James and the Giant Peach, the centipede rather annoyingly begins calling the cloud men names including the word "asses." If you are uncomfortable with this term, I suggest that you do a read-aloud of chapter 27 for the purpose of censoring the word.
Literary Focus: Following a brief scientific lesson of peaches, students will be comparing the unkind aunts with the kindness that James shows the insects in the giant peach. Through the adventures and James' help, we will see the insects and James comes to find a happier more accepting group of friends. Throughout the entire discussion, we will focus on the kindness of James and the insects.
The Poetry Unit: Following a brief lesson on the definition of poetry, students will be introduced to famous poets through their poetry. I will focus primarily on the following poets: Lewis Carroll, Edward Lear, Basho, and Shel Silverstein.
During this unit, students will learn about rhyming and non-rhyming poetry, writing their own poetry, and dramatically reading poetry.
The book The Borrowers is a fictional story featuring a family of tiny people who live secretly in the walls and floors of an English house and "borrow" from the big people in order to survive. The story more closely follows the tiny Arrietty Clock and her friendship with the boy who lives in the house.
Literary Focus: This book discussion will focus on friendships and how to be a better friend. What does a friend look like, how do they act, and how can we show kindness to our friends and others? Additionally, we will discuss how to respect others' property and make wise choices when we borrow another's property.

Saving my profile will allow you to receive 4th and 5th Grade Language Arts class listing updates. I teach year-round with classes beginning mid-September, mid-January, and mid-May.
Having taught for many years, I have learned the key to being a great educator is to, "Never Stop Learning!" To that end, I am always making exciting discoveries that allow me to improve my knowledge and skills in a variety of areas. Specifically, I am passionate about Literature, Public Speaking, and Life Skills and truly believe that knowledge in these areas is particularly important to achieve a full and happy life.
Through Outschool, My passion is to provide excellent Language Arts classes for 4th and 5th-grade students. This is the time in a student's education when they move from learning to read to reading to learn.
I have now listed three age-appropriate classes per grade level. These classes are specifically designed to provide your student with a fun, educational, and exciting way to grasp all of the 4th and 5th-grade ELA Common Core expectations.
In the fall, your student may take either 4th or 5th-grade ELA (Semester One) courses. In the spring (January), your student may take either 4th or 5th grade ELA (Semester Two). In the summer, I'll be teaching my grade-specific eight-week Summer Reading and Writing Fun Courses.
Graduating with a degree in K-8 education and completing an emphasis in Reading and Math for all levels, I have had the privilege to teach public, private, and homeschooled students in grades k-12. Not only have I taught my three loves as listed above, but have enjoyed expanding my knowledge by teaching math, science, and history.
I believe learning should be an adventure worth taking and must include both teacher and learner engaging together. As a teacher, I am also a learner, and as a learner, your students are also teachers, by engaging together as a classroom of teachers and learners, my classes will work for a variety of learning styles including but not limited to the visual, auditory and tactile learning styles.
When I'm not teaching, I'm walking, reading, sewing, cooking, watching baseball, and loving on my family.評論
