Language Arts
Grades 6-12

Collections is an English Language Arts series whose purpose is to develop and strengthen English reading, writing, speaking, listening, and language skills in alignment with the Alaska State Standards.

​

Students engage with a variety of texts and media organized into six separate thematic units. Each unit finishes with a choice of performance task that offers students the opportunity to demonstrate an understanding of the materials and to practice and apply language arts skills. 

​

The curriculum focuses on three specific areas:

• developing academic language

• effective expression of ideas

• acquiring content knowledge
