Parent NewsletterRowling High School10th Grade English Language Arts 2012-2013 Important Information Teacher: Ms. Mayer Phone: 863-588-2012 ext. 2400 mmayer@ocps.net Goal and Objective: It is my goal that our tenth grade English Language Arts classroom will have a climate that promotes learning and fosters supporting, respectful relationships among its students. While it is my responsibility and pleasure to teach your children language arts content, it is also my priority to teach them to be independent thinkers with upstanding moral character. Personal Quote: “If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.” –Henry David Thoreau • What the Class is Working on Now • Current Unit:Medieval Literature • eStudy Guide for Students located at: • http://eng10ms-mayer.wikispaces.com/Start+Here%2C+Content+Analysis • Current Focus: Sir Gawain & The Green Knight • Activities Include: • Pre-Reading Anticipation Guide • Phonemic Analysis (Looking at stressed and unstressed syllables of words) • Phonics Usage (Spelling Conventions that are right most of the time) • Strategies to Learn Vocabulary (Morphemic Analysis, Graphic Organizers, Digital Stories) • The Study of Question-Answer Relationships • After Reading Activities for Sir Gawain & the Green Knight (Includes an essay and two other project options.)
