In addition to the core experiences and outcomes from Language Arts 8, students in Extended ELA will be invited to consider, create, and analyze texts and media with more complexity, depth, and levels of independence. Students will engage in a close reading of diverse, relevant fiction and non-fiction texts and media, which will be selected with consideration of the multiple levels of complexity including Lexile, structure, knowledge demands, and levels of meaning/purpose and in consideration of the maturity level of students. Students may also be invited to explore and create texts and media by considering the progressive complexity and depth of knowledge evident in 9th grade skills and academic language.
