Welcome to Mrs. Bishop's 8th Grade ELA Webpage

This class is designed to provide continued development of reading, writing, and other language skills.  Students will learn strategies to aid in reading comprehension and enjoyment by studying various literature genres.  Cooperative learning, mini lessons, discussion groups, and literature circles, and Socratic seminars are some of the ways we will be analyzing literature in our classroom.  Students will work to expand their vocabulary and writing skills in authentic classroom activities, in addition to following the Rutherford County approved Amplify platform.
