Imagine It!

Our new Language Arts program is call "Imagine It!".  It is a district-wide program and we are in our second year of using it.  It encompases all the Language Arts components--Reading, Grammar, Writing, Spelling.  Through this program, we teach all of our core Language Arts curriculum.  This makes us very busy and we work hard everyday as we learn and grow.  We use suggested activities during Workshop time as well as in our homeroom instruction. 


Assignments

Reading homework is varied but essential.  Every student needs to read 120 minutes every week and fill out a Reading Log.  The Reading Log takes TWO minutes every night but it is a must when it comes to comprehension.  Additional work will be written in the Student Planner.


Caught Ya!

Caught Ya! is a Language Arts component that centers on grammar and writing mechanics.  We work with one sentence of a year-long story every day.  It is about a teacher at Rolling Meadows named Mrs. Obnoxious and she really is VERY obnoxious!!!  Students receive a grade once a week which can be viewed in the grade book.
