Course Description
The Language Arts Essentials course is a program designed to increase comprehension in informational reading (science and social studies topics). The program is called Adolescent Critical Reading Intervention (ACRI). Research has shown that the ACRI program is successful and helps students make significant growth in their reading level.
It is instructed quite differently from a traditional reading class model. Instruction takes place in a small group setting; classes will be no larger than 10 students. There will be no homework assigned and grades will be a credit/no credit. Assessments will be given but will be for the purpose of examining the growth of each child. We will examine informational reading pieces and analyze them for specific structures within the text.
I am excited about this class! Please let me know if you have any further questions about this course.
