Teacher Expectations I will provide instruction in non-fiction reading text, writing, speaking and listening, and language as identified by the Nevada Academic Content Standards. I will collaborate with Mrs. Scalzi as she will focus on the fiction literature (novels). I will use a variety of sources for non-fiction text so students may become comfortable closely reading, annotating, and comprehending what the text says. I will have students demonstrate their understanding with verbal and written explanations.
