Exam Questions and Answers
Elementary school:
teachers interact with students of vastly different age groups, from the early ages of five or six, to the
cusp of adolescence at 11 or 12.
Elementary school teachers
usually have one class and they teach their students several different subjects. The curriculum is
usually structured around the fundamental subjects of mathematics, science, social studies, language
arts, music, art and reading.
In Elementary school:
language arts classes focus on basic reading, writing and linguistic / communication skills. Periods of
silent sustained reading, cursive writing, syntax, thematic writing and vocabulary are all major focal
points of elementary lessons. Through these exercises, children are expected to develop reading and
writing skills at an early age.
In Middle school:
the English curriculum evolves and expands to include more complicated reading comprehension,
such as fiction, poetry and essays. In addition, grammar and semantics become a focal point of
lessons, and students begin to foster writing skills that encompass poetry, expository writing and
creative writing. Students in middle school are expected to expand vocabularies and develop a
mature grasp of the five categories of language arts.
In High school:
students take mandatory English classes in which they are expected to develop analytical skills.
Classes generally revolve around reading novels, essays and other forms of literature, and require
students to analyze, interpret and dissect written material in order to compare, contrast and discuss
elements, like theme, characters and plot. Proficient writing skills are necessary at this point as these
discussions of literature typically manifest in the form of an essay or research paper. High school
English is a comprehensive study, combining the five skills of language arts in order to understand
literature and its value.
