English Language Arts, Grade 6
This year we are reading novels. We will explore dynamic characters and settings while we discuss themes of friendship, freedom, choices and consequences. Students will engage in whole group discussions and use small group activities to help build critical thinking and analytical skills.
Texts for Grade 6:
- Holes by Louis Sachar
- The People Could Fly by Virginia Hamilton
- Number the Stars by Lois Lowry
As a supplement to our Language Arts curriculum and to provide additional literacy support for our scholars, students will use iXL.
IXL is a personalized learning program that offers a curriculum for K–12 students. Students will receive lessons on thier level covering skills designed to reinforce topics covered in state standards.
