This website is designed to used as a resource for students and parents in all my reading classes. The links are helpful for review and at home support. Always check student's planners for assignments as classes will differ. If you need additional information please contact me.

Students will be tested every 5 instructional days on their Greek and Latin Vocabulary. These test are cumulative. Students will keep their notes in a spiral notebook to use as study guides. Students are expected to study nightly.

We will begin focus on myths, folk tales, and tall tales in the first quarter. Students will need to bring in art supplies for a collage project on these areas of focus. We will also be focusing on context clues, finding the main idea, and reading comprehension.

Great websites for additional support and practice:
