Course Catalog

Semester A of English 6 is divided into two main categories: Storytelling and Heroes. The first module, or unit, that students will encounter is Introduction to English 6, which provides an introduction to key course concepts and a review of the basic skills needed to succeed in the course. Throughout the remaining modules, students will engage in various interactive activities, quizzes and writing assignments that build on students’ previous knowledge of literature, informational text, and language use while challenging them to apply these skills to the rigors of a high school course. Assignments include writing a narrative essay and completing a book report. The second semester of grade 6 English Language Arts online course builds on the skills and concepts introduced in the first semester. Students tackle more difficult texts in Semester B and apply more advanced analysis skills to reading and writing tasks. They also study some of the more subtle aspects of language, such as the role of connotation and nuance in an author’s word choices and how those choices affect readers. Reading assignments are selected, in part, to provide models for students’ own writing in specific modes, forms, or genres. Several lessons demonstrate methods of sharing and publishing writing using 21st century technology.
