Course Description

The ILC ELA 9 - 1st Semester materials are designed as a 1st semester course. Semester 1 and Semester 2 are available separately for download. The following offers a summary of the year-long course: The New York State Grade 9 curriculum modules offer a wide range of quality texts that span the canonical to the contemporary. The ILC curriculum balances classic works by William Shakespeare, Sophocles, and Emily Dickinson with contemporary writing by authors such as Temple Grandin, Karen Russell, and Marc Aronson. Through the study of a variety of text types and media, students build knowledge, analyze ideas, delineate arguments, and develop writing, collaboration, and communication skills. The modules clearly identify standards that are addressed and assessed. The 9-12 ELA Prefatory Material and Teacher Instructional Guide includes further details.

Standards
These instructional materials are available to assist educators in implementing Iowa’s Academic Standards. Curriculum leaders and teachers should review these instructional materials to ensure full implementation of Iowa’s Academic Standards in the local curriculum. Each module identifies standards that are addressed and assessed, and this course creates a year-long curriculum when combined with ILC ELA 9 - 2nd Semester.
Prerequisites

ILC ELA 9 - 1st Semester should be completed before ILC ELA 9 - 2nd Semester, as it is a year-long course.
