Communication Arts 9 (Resource)

This is a Communication Arts 9 class with specialized instruction for students with Individualized Educational Programs(IEP's).  This class couples the general ed curriculum with specialized instruction in the areas of need for each individual student.  We focus on increasing reading strategies and improve writing skills and capitalization, punctuation and grammar.

We will be reading the Odyssey, Romeo and Juliet and the novel To Kill a Mockingbird.  We will be working on assignments on the 9th grade requirements.  Some of these assignments and readings will be at a modified level. 

We will do weekly DOL.  The DOL will be the 9th grade level and reviewed in class.  This will give the students exposure to the grammar expectation.  The students are given weekly homework in spelling.  This packet is due on Friday.  The students take a test on Friday over the spelling words for the week. The students will also have various homework assignments.

Reading 8/9 (Resource
      This class is designed to improve your reading skills.  Each of your skill level is varied and we will build upon those levels and work to improve your skills. Reading is an important part of life and to be successful you must have strategies to increase your reading ability.
     We have added an emphasis on building your reading skills.  We will spend a lot of time working on decoding and comprehension skills, but will also work on WASL type reading experiences.
