REDWATER ISD

7^th Grade Writing will embody the interconnected nature of listening, speaking, reading, writing, and thinking through the seven integrated strands of developing and sustaining foundational language skills,comprehension,response, multiple genres, author's purpose and craft,composition,and inquiry and research. We will focus on academic oracy (proficiency in oral expression and comprehension), authentic reading, and reflective writing to ensure literacy. Students will continue to develop knowledge and skills with increased complexity and nuance in order to think critically and adapt to the ever-evolving nature of language and literacy.
