Grades 3-5
|
|
| Most
students in these grades have language processes in place and are able
to use them to learn about the world and to learn more about learning.
Students will spend more time using language independently, although
teacher support and direction is readily available. Teachers continue
to demonstrate and model effective language usage and include more questions,
suggestions, and opportunities for students to pursue areas of personal
interest. Texts become increasingly longer and more complex. Writing
tasks become more transactional as students move into writing that informs
and affects broader audiences. Editing and formal speech are used to
further strengthen the conventions of written and spoken English. As
students move through this grade cluster, their ability to use language
is expanded. They are capable of experiencing, remembering and using
the texts they have encountered in various media. Independent and small
group work is emphasized. |
