Course description

This course was originally called Practical English I. When Az Department of Education implemented "End of Course" State assessments, the sections I-IV were added to match with the "End of Course" testing labels. Once those End of Course assessments were eliminated, the students were put into Practical English I classes. That is why the transcripts for the student in question are showing Practical English I, II, I and I. The designation of I-IV should have been eliminated. The classes were 9-12 grade levels and were comprised of students with IEP and or 504 accommodations. The designation "Practical English I-IV" is no longer used in the district. Practical English I-IV (AZ01009) Prerequisite: Assessment & IEP driven Grade Levels: 9-12 Year Long Course (.5 credits per semester) This course meets the Arizona ELA State Standards for reading, writing, speaking and listening. Practical English is for the student who needs remedial work in the area of basic reading skills, reading comprehension and/or written expression. The class sizes are small and are comprised of freshman, sophomore, junior and senior students. This course of study is offered to provide support services needed to fulfill graduation requirements for English, grades 9-12.
