In Cycle 2 the students are given 90mins of English instruction per week. During the first term the students work on oral language and in the second term reading skills are the focus. The third term is quite busy since the students are evaluated on all three competencies; oral language, reading and writing. During the third term the students learn about reading response, media literacy and The Write Traits (Ideas, Organization, Voice, Word Choice, Sentence Fluency, and Conventions).
