Middle Years- Language Arts 

Years 7, 8 and 9 follow the Language Arts goals as set out in the International Middle Years Curriculum. Language Arts at this stage integrates speaking, listening, reading and writing within lessons rather than focusing on each of these aspects discretely. Now that students have a firm grasp of these basic skills, they apply them within all subject areas in addition to within specific Language Arts lessons. Students read and write for a variety of purposes as they carry out tasks incorporating skills across all of their curriculum subjects.

Reading at this level involves tasks such as: summarising texts; analysing linguistic and literary features; comparing and contrasting information and ideas; relating texts to their social, cultural and historical contexts. Students read a wide variety of text types – poetry, drama, novels, short stories and non-fiction.

Students develop their writing skills by composing a variety of texts types. These include narratives, letters, factual reports, essays, poetry, recounts, instructions, procedures, and playscripts. Compositions are created on both paper and screen, for different purposes and audiences. The skills of drafting, rereading, editing, and publishing continue to be a focus at this level, as students become more independent and experienced writers. They learn to use and adapt many different writing features and techniques to create a range of effects and impacts.
