Literature and Writing
The seventh-grade team of ELA teachers tries very hard to be "on the same page" when teaching LA and reading. Also, we like to integrate the two as much as we can. Therefore, we MAY be reading the pieces of literature and nonfiction above, but we will also be reading many shorter pieces, and then writing in response to them. We will be working towards aligning all of our lessons with the Common Core Standards that Illinois has decided to adopt, and these will challenge students to think... Hooray!
To start the 2017-2018 school year off, we'll be piloting Schoolwide reading and writing lessons. See this tab for more information.
