Grade 7 Reading & Language Arts Email Phone: 262-763-0190 Let me take a moment to introduce myself. My name is Ellen Murphy, and I’ve been teaching seventh-grade English in Burlington since 1992. I earned my baccalaureate in secondary English at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, and my master's in curriculum and instruction at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater. While I enjoy reading, Irish culture, and watching old movies, I spend most of my time chauffeuring my three children to dance lessons and lacrosse practice.
In seventh-grade English, students will learn to use the English language to express their creativity, argue their opinions, and demonstrate what they’ve learned. They will also learn to use the English language correctly, so that their ideas are communicated effectively. I believe strongly that students learn and develop at their own rate, and that while the journey will take longer for some than others, we will all eventually reach the same destination.
