Welcome to my class!

English 9

This English course is Common Core standards based to prepare students for college and career readiness. Students will continue to develop reading & writing skills with a focus on the English Common Core standards for grades 9-12. A goal of ours is going to be learning to analyze literature and understand how they relate to us and our modern world.

ELD- English Language Development and Reading

This course is designed for multilingual learners and focuses on the continued oral language development of the four domains (listening, speaking, reading, and writing). English reading comprehension and writing competencies are emphasized around literary themes , culture, and core contents. Grammar, vocabulary, spelling, library, dictionary and research skills, writing, and technology are taught throughout the year in anticipation of entry into college prep courses. The Common Core ELD standards continue to serve as targets with a focus on exposure to the school goals.

(Note- ELD is a language level, not a grade-level course)
