Curriculum and Instruction
Everett Public Schools uses reading, writing and speaking curriculum that includes fiction and non-fiction texts and a variety of multimedia that is age appropriate. The programs feature stories and topics that highlight multicultural populations and themes that Everett English Learners can connect with. They include English language instruction that includes spelling, vocabulary, oral presentations and phonics.
English Learners learn how to use evidence to support a claim, compare and contrast ideas, justify their opinions and find main ideas in informational texts. Our goal is that English Learners will be able to take these skills and apply them to complex English texts they encounter on their pathways to college and/or career.
