Course Description
English Languages Arts (ELA) is a required area of study in Saskatchewan’s Core Curriculum.
The aim of this course is to help learners understand and appreciate language.
The lessons will include all areas of language:
reading, writing, speaking, listening, representing and viewing.
Assessments will include ongoing home assessment and regular submissions to the DLC teacher. Submissions will include PDF documents, audio or video files, and photos of projects.
We are flexible, and through regular communication, we are willing to support families to fit the learner’s voice and choice.
