Language Arts
In Language Arts, we use the McGraw-Hill Reading Wonders program. This program incorporates reading & listening comprehension, vocabulary, phonics & spelling, grammar & mechanics, & writing. The wonderful thing about this program is everything is tied together and connected to the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards. They also have fun ways to incorporate technology into each lesson!
