All academic subjects contain a language component.
Because Greenwood teachers are required to complete remedial language training, they are able to offer students a consistent approach to language skills. The Application of Skills A student who has difficulty in acquiring language skills is generally at his greatest disadvantage when required to express himself through writing. To promote success in this area we devote a full academic period each day to development of composition skills. The tutorial, which concentrates on reading, spelling, and cursive, is complemented by a writing class where students learn to apply what they have learned. In this class, students learn grammar, punctuation, sentence and paragraph construction, creative and expository writing.
