Traditionally, there are five branches within Language Arts. These five branches can be labeled as: reading, writing, speaking, listening, and viewing (or visual literacy).

 

Here, at Central Coast Middle School, we are very lucky to have teachers who are dedicated to the betterment of their students' reading, writing, speaking, listening, and viewing of Language Arts. Accomplishing this goal of betterment through focused, fun, and comprehensive lessons our students are asked to read for a certain and consistent amount of time each day--and then take quizzes online to test their understanding--learn many diverse vocabulary words, write essays, practice correct grammar, and take part in more activities. In doing so, we hope to inspire our students with the knowledge that a large vocabulary and a proficiency in essay writing can take you anywhere in life.
