Dear young
people,
do not bury your
talents,
the gifts that
God has given you!
Do not be afraid
to dream of great things!
-Pope
Francis

In seventh grade, you will learn to construct meaning from fiction and non-fiction and to analyze both concrete and abstract elements of literature.
You will practice transferring language skills (including grammar, usage, mechanics, and spelling: "GUMS") to your written work, and you will use "The Writing Process" to further develop your writing skills.
You will self-select and read a variety of genres as you journey toward becoming life-long readers.
The English language arts curriculum is aligned to NYS and Diocesan standards.
