Welcome
to the "Art of Language." The aim of this class is to equip students
with concepts, skills, and information that help them become better
readers, writers, and communicators.
Just as any performance, sport, or discipline
in life requires practice, so it is with the skills of reading,
writing, speaking, and listening; that is why students are asked to
extend classroom learning into practice at home.
Check the homework site frequently to stay
updated on current activities and assignments. Most importantly, learn
a lot and have fun! |
