This is my 14th year of teaching! I spent 2 years as an instructional coach. My days are spent with 6th - 8th graders, depending on the year! I love teaching RLA (or ELAR), and hope to help meet your curriculum needs.
I tend to utilize reader's and writer's workshop with a touch of project-based learning. I use invitational grammar and in-context vocabulary study.
