Literacy
Unit 1
This first unit along with the 5 reading selections focus on the question What experiences can cause a person to change?
In this unit, students will listen, read, and write about life-changing experiences. As the progress through the unit, they will also develop and apply important comprehension skills that all good readers use as they read. Some of the comprehension skills are making inferences, story structure(character, setting, and plot),comparing and contrasting, and sequencing events.
