What's Happening This Month?

All Classes

Every week involves a daily warmup assignment that focuses on vocabulary or writing that culminates in a weekly grade. We strive for 30 minutes of reading daily with analysis and reading guides that they can later use for tests. There are periodic reading comprehension and figurative language practices and assessments to measure growth. Grammar is being covered from the ground up.
