G.T. English, Language Arts, and
Reading
Mrs. Lubojacky
As a gifted and talented teacher, I believe this
is especially true for my students, and my goal
is to expose students to higher level thinking. I
am dedicated to teaching good knowledge. I do
make the assumption that your child is
academically motivated, and it is my goal to
teach them to be independent and creative
thinkers, with the ability to apply knowledge
and skills to all aspects of life. The Wylie
W.I.N.G.S. program is designed to be built
upon, with each grade a preparation for the
next. I am creating LIFE LONG LEARNERS!
Out of my Mind – Sharon Draper
Knots in my Yo-Yo String – Jerry Spinelli
Maniac Magee – Jerry Spinelli
A Wrinkle in Time – Madeleine L’Engle
Roll of Thunder, Hear my Cry – Mildred Taylor
We will also do literature circles (Student
choice of novel from provided list)
The goal is to obtain a mastery of words. The
method used in The Word Within the Word is more
than merely memorizing words, rather it is making
logical sense of the root of words.
 Also known as STEMS
 A new list will be given each week. Each list has
15 words
 Tests are weekly with review tests after 5 lists
 STEM homework and tests will be averaged and
one grade for each will be placed into the
gradebook at end of nine weeks.

 Where
does my students get returned
papers?
Each of my students has a file with their name
on it; graded papers are placed in their file,
and it is the student’s responsibility to check
their file at least once a week.
 What if my student gets a grade below a 70?
All assignments below a 70 can be corrected.
Original and new grade will be averaged
together or placed into the grade book.
 What
if my child is absent?
Work is collected for your child the day(s) that
they are absent by the class attendance clerk
and placed in the Absent Work Folder. It is
your child’s responsibility to pick up their
absent work from the folder when they
return to school. They have the number of
days that they were absent to make up the
missed assignments.
 What
if I leave a textbook or something else I
need for class in my locker?
We have designated locker times and are not
allowed to send anyone to their lockers
during any NON locker times. Not having
what you need may result in having to attend
tutorials to complete the class assignment
missed.
Locker Times are Before 1st period, Before 3rd
period, and After 5th period.
 Where
do papers get turned in?
Each period has a basket, and it is your child’s
responsibility to turn in their papers when
they are due and complete.
 What if there is no name on my paper?
Papers with no name are placed into the NO
NAME folder.
A “B” is not the end of the world:
This is designed to be a demanding,
challenging, and rigorous language arts
curriculum. Therefore, your child will be
challenged more than they would in a regular
language arts class. Your child may have to
study and practice more than they have in the
past. If your child does not achieve as well as
they have in the past, DO NOT PANIC! Keep
calm and work with the teacher on a plan of
action. My goal is for your child to be as
successful as possible. I want them to
succeed!!!
