Preparing Your 8th Graders for the CRCT

We are only 4 weeks away before students take the CRCT to help prepare our students in Language Arts and Literacy, students were given a packet in which they must review each night the material that we have covered thus far.

In class students will be doing a variety of different mini-lessons, group assignments, individual assignments, etc. as a way to review content the students should be familiar with at this point.

Week 1 (this week) will focus on sentences and The Eight Parts of Speech.

Week 2 (week beginning March 7th) will focus on literary elements such as main idea, author's purpose, point-of-view, etc.

Week 3 (week beginning March 14th) will focus on writing and research methods

Week 4  (week beginning March 21st) will be reinforcement of all areas.
