The Grade 7 Language Arts course is designed to meet the Canadian curriculum standards, providing students with a comprehensive understanding of literary analysis, persuasive writing, media literacy, and research skills. Throughout the course, students will engage with a variety of texts, including novels, short stories, poems, and media articles, to develop their ability to analyze and interpret literature. They will learn to construct persuasive arguments, enhancing their writing skills through structured exercises and feedback.

Media literacy is a key component of the course, where students will explore the impact of media on society and learn to critically evaluate media messages.
