See the individual pages labeled on the sidebar for specific info regarding each English plan.

Hey Guys! Also reminder, we decided to add that one bit that was written in the standards to each of our plans. I just looked now and they only have that "by the end of" piece that we were discussing for the reading components only. I am not sure what we want to go about the writing, language, and speaking, and listening standards.... They also have an attached book list at the end of the standards. It's terrible and traditional. Gatsby, Their Eyes Were Watching God and A Raisin in the Sun are all on the list for English Three but we have them in English Two. I don't think we care, but I wanted to mention it. Thought on that? On Monday at 8 we will review Literacy 2 and English 4. Hopefully we will also discuss performance tasks for each course.... anything else?? xoxoxoxoxo Brittany

Hey -- thought this might be handy to have on here. I'm uploading it as .doc. If people find it helpful to highlight or insert comments on certain things, that might be useful at certain points. If not, no big deal. I'm just waiting for Dan to upload Literacy 1, and then I'll work on Literacy 2. I also need to make some changes to English 1 since we moved some of those suggested readings to other classes and thought of some others (yayy perks of being a wallflower!). Happy planning.... emily
