Culminating on the foundations of Language Arts, 9th-10th will include leveled spelling and grammar, research, source citation, reading, writing and speaking academic argument, meta-cognitive thinking, perspective development, and world-view perspective development. Students in 9th-10th grade begin to understand the world around them and how they relate to/contribute to society. Standards are aligned in a reading/discussion format using prompts designed to specifically address standards, followed by a writing/multimedia project. The project addresses presentation standards and acts as an assessment of critical thinking skills, organization, and responsibility. Literature is gathered from multiple sources, and writing is varied for style and grade level.
