           Seventh grade ELA focuses on an exciting blend of reading, writing, speaking and listening skills.
        We will cover both paired fiction and non-fiction reading selections and novels to work on improving multiple choice responses, making inferences, using text evidence and vocabulary development/word choice. Students are encouraged to read at home all year on their own and will participate in RAY (Reading All Year) reading during the school year.
        Students will gain practice writing creative narratives, explanatory essays, argument essays, prose constructed responses, poetry and more.
        The writing skills covered will focus on improvements in clarity, providing details, essay openings and closings, as well as use of figurative language. 
        Please note that many assignments will be posted through the use of Google Classroom for assessment purposes.
