Language Arts• Primary Grades (1–3) - The Language Arts curriculum at St. Stephen’s covers Reading, Grammar, Writing Composition, Spelling, Language, Listening and Speaking, and Penmanship. The Language Arts Program is designed to teach children through a balance of systematic direct instruction and the explicit development of skills, interrelating all components for a total Language Arts program. • Upper Grades (4-6) - The language arts program gives students an opportunity to be exposed to quality authors and their works. Good literature provides a model for a sequential development of written and oral skills. It also provides experiences that allow each child to build upon an ever-expanding body of knowledge and ability, an invitation to question, reflect, predict and think critically. Reading should be a relevant and enjoyable process. The goal is to create a community of readers.
