There will be thirty-six units in spelling. Spelling tests will be given each Friday. Every six weeks a spelling handout with six spelling word lists will be sent home for students and parents. Spelling books will remain in the classroom.
Grammar

Composition
Meaningful composition assignments enhance skills taught in the English curriculum. As such, writing will be taught and practiced throughout the year as well as being integrated into the study of literature.
Literature
Themes and forms of literature will be taught intermittently throughout the year. Periodically, writing assignments will accompany reading assignments. Due dates will be announced at the time of the assignment is given. Unfamiliar vocabulary words from the stories may also be assigned when appropriate. Check tests on the stories will be given at the beginning of class the day after a reading assignment is made. If time permits we will read two novels this year.
Grading Procedures
