A four-unit, 60-day English Language Arts learning path aligned with the Alberta Program of Studies for Grade 3. Students develop oral language, reading, writing, viewing, representing, research, and media-literacy skills through increasingly complex tasks connected to classroom, community, and Calgary contexts. Learning emphasizes respectful communication, diverse perspectives, clear expression, and the writing process.

Over approximately 15 days, students establish routines for thoughtful listening, respectful discussion, fluent reading, and purposeful writing. They examine fiction and nonfiction texts to identify main ideas, important details, characters, setting, sequence, and connections to their own experiences. Students practise asking and answering questions, making predictions and inferences, summarizing short texts, and responding in complete sentences. Writing instruction focuses on generating ideas, organizing them into beginning-middle-end structures, drafting, revising, editing, and publishing. Students create a personal narrative about a meaningful experience in their school, family, or Calgary community, using descriptive language and appropriate conventions. Oral fluency, active listening, vocabulary development, spelling patterns, paragraphing, capitalization, punctuation, and sentence structure are reinforced throughout the unit.
