A four-part, 60-day English Language Arts learning path aligned with the Alberta English Language Arts and Literature curriculum as implemented in Edmonton Public Schools. Students develop increasingly sophisticated skills in reading, viewing, writing, representing, speaking, listening, collaboration, and critical response. Each topic is designed for approximately 15 instructional days and includes explicit instruction, guided practice, independent application, revision, reflection, and assessment.

Across approximately 15 days, students build a foundation for responding thoughtfully to literary texts, including short stories, novels, poetry, and Indigenous and culturally diverse texts. They learn to use comprehension strategies before, during, and after reading; identify theme, character, setting, conflict, point of view, and significant details; make supported inferences; and distinguish between personal response and evidence-based interpretation. Students examine how authors use language, imagery, dialogue, and text structure to communicate ideas about identity, belonging, relationships, and community. They will participate in discussions, maintain reading-response notes, and compose a developed literary response supported by specific textual evidence.
