The language arts program is designed to expand each student’s ability to communicate effectively through reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Students practice speaking and listening through regular classroom discussion and the oral presentation of projects. They develop their reading skills through a varied program of independent reading, guided reading of short stories and novels, shared reading, and participation in literature circles. The focus of writing will be on personal narratives, informational texts, essays, and realistic fiction. By learning to keep a writer’s notebook, students will develop and apply literary techniques to enhance their writing abilities
