Anchor 4th Grade ELA

*** No live meetings for this class ***

Class Fees are $10 or 100 points per semester.

Fourth-grade language arts gives you the opportunity to learn about everything from poetry to life in the Middle Ages! You will write narratives, investigate research questions, and even read Treasure Island. This class is a time to explore what topics you like reading and writing about. Each week, students will read and engage with a variety of literature. We can’t wait for you to join us. 

Students will turn in 8 required assessments per semester. These required assessments alternate between investigating grade-level concepts by choosing an assignment from a choice board and turning in a curriculum check-in. Each choice board offers both online and pencil-and-paper options. The curriculum check-ins will be graded based on each student's progress in their individual curriculum. This new aspect of the class will encourage students to make progress through the grade-level class. 

Anchor classes are asynchronous, teacher-led classes. Students do NOT have a live meeting. Daily work is provided, and the anchor teacher grades the final weekly assignment. Teachers provide biweekly videos and add instructional supports to each day's lesson. For more information about the curriculum and assignments, please visit the Braintree website.
