Mrs. Warren's ELA Expectations
I am following a 50/50 approach in reading expectations for each grade-level.
The academic texts will include novels, excerpts from classics, and nonfictional texts that will make up the bulk of their ELA class. My goal is that each student will recognize the value that comes from reading academic texts. Students will self-select half of their reading (recreational). Accountability: To receive a grade of a 4, 3, or 2 in my classroom, each student must read one self-selected recreational book per month. Upon completion, students are asked to fill out one-pager. One-pagers are reflections of the book they have just read. Each one-pager will be conferenced individually with Mrs. Warren. The page # requirement will depend on grade-level. |
