In the Reading and Writing Workshops, we implement the various workshop components – independent reading/writing, shared work, read-aloud, guided work, word study (phonics), and high-frequency/sight words. Teachers and students are able to set personalized goals, as well as nurture an authentic love for reading and writing through independence, choice, and exposure to a rich variety of appropriately leveled reading and writing experiences. We cover various fiction and non-fiction genres throughout the year. Our curriculum focuses on decoding strategies, good reading habits and comprehension skills.
