English
6th Grade English is framed around the California Common Core State Standards . Being the Film and Media Magnet I first open with narrative (story-telling), because it is the base of what we will be doing most of the year. We then move on to expository, with a well written 5-paragraph essay as the standard and expectation. Next, is argumentative writing, with socratic seminars and position papers framing the unit. Towards the end, Literature Circles form the following unit with team novel readings and team projects. Finally, we end the year with Greek Mythology and news broadcasts.
Assignments and due dates can be found on Google Classroom
