Course Description:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n Students will receive continued instruction in reading, writing, speaking, listening, and the analysis of literature.\u00a0 These activities will expand student knowledge of different communication formats, focus on the writing process, as well as develop reading fluency and comprehension. \u00a0Common Core<\/a>\u00a0is used to drive instruction.<\/strong><\/p>\n We will be incorporating technology into our lessons, projects, activities, and assessments.

Students will be assessed using the NWEA<\/a> for reading, language, math, and science three times a school year (September, January, and May). We use the data to inform our instruction and target deficit areas. New this year is a writing assessment, which will be an argumentative piece. Students will be expected to read an article and then use the article to write their response, in September and again in February. Again, the data will be used to inform our instruction.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Grading Scale:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n 80% Summative Assessments<\/strong><\/p>\n 20% Formative Assessments<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Grades:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n Students and parents have real time access to grades, assignments, comments, and attendance using Parent and Student Connection.
