(Purple) In this course, students receive structured lessons in the language arts, a discipline that includes literature and comprehension, writing skills, vocabulary, spelling, and handwriting. The purpose of these lessons is to increase reading comprehension, develop fundamental skills in oral and written communication, build vocabulary, and promote a lifelong interest in reading. This course addresses current thinking in assessment standards.

Literature and Comprehension: Within the 18 units of this program, students will read a variety of poetry, fiction, and nonfiction. The reading selections in each unit share a common theme, topic, or genre. The accompanying lessons will develop students’ literal and inferential comprehension skills. Students will read selections from the provided materials and then work online to analyze and examine the selections in more depth. They will work offline to further evaluate selections, make connections among works and the broader world, and apply the skills that they have learned in written assignments and creative projects. Students will also select books that they want to read from a list that is provided and analyze those works. In Critical Skills Practice units, students will practice important test-taking skills by reading passages and answering multiple-choice questions about what they have read. These questions are similar to those found on common standardized assessments and state tests.
Handwriting: Students will begin cursive writing instruction using the Zaner-Bloser curriculum and materials. By the second semester students should begin the use of cursive writing to complete assignments.
Spelling: There are 36 units in K12 Spelling. Each unit contains five lessons. The first lesson of a unit introduces new spelling words. In the second and third lessons, you and your students work together to practice the spelling words introduced in the first lesson. These first three lessons are offline. The fourth lesson in each unit is an online review activity. Finally, the fifth lesson consists of an offline Unit Checkpoint that checks students’ mastery of the spelling words. Each lesson is designed to take approximately 15.00 minutes. Students will master the spelling skills needed to read and write proficiently.
Vocabulary: K12 Vocabulary exposes students to a wide variety of words. Students will learn, review, and practice words online. K12 Vocabulary is made up of 18 units of 10 lessons each. Lessons are entirely online. Each lesson should take about 10 minutes. In the first 8 lessons of each unit, students will study 3 sets of related words. Lesson 9 of each unit is a review of all the words. Lesson 10 is always a Unit Checkpoint, testing students on all the words they studied.
Writing Skills: Writing Skills units combine online and offline activities to teach students about grammar, usage, and mechanics, as well as how to plan, write, revise, proofread, and publish various forms of writing. For example, in Unit 4, students will learn about combining sentences and strategies for writing a personal story. Most units end with an assessment on language skills, along with rubrics and sample papers to help evaluate students’ writing. There are also four Critical Skills Practice units that help students apply their knowledge of language, vocabulary, spelling, and writing strategies to answer questions similar to those on standardized tests, including planning and writing a response to a prompt.

A Harmony Flex course offers parents and students flexibility in selecting course learning materials and activities based on a student’s learning style. Parents support students in working through individualized units of studies that focus on each of the grade-level standards listed below. Students then demonstrate competency by completing and submitting a Flex checkpoint worksheet for each unit.

Parents will have access to educational resources and the Flex Curriculum Resource Directory. The directory will supplement their selected course curriculum and to assist in planning and teaching each unit. The Curriculum Resource Directory will include links to online lesson materials that can be used as part of a unit study related to each unit’s checkpoint worksheet.

Course Requirements

Students in grades K-8 complete 9 units and the correlating checkpoint worksheets each semester, submitting one worksheet every two weeks.

The portfolio should include the grade-level work that the student has worked on and should be saved throughout the year. The portfolio will be reviewed quarterly by a Harmony Teacher of Record.

Parents submit a weekly learning log/narrative that outlines the educational objectives that the student met during that calendar week. Learning log submissions will be due every Friday and fulfill the attendance requirement with our partner school.

A portfolio is submitted quarterly and will be reviewed by a Harmony teacher of record. The portfolio guidelines include:

5-8 portfolio items of student work per subject and should demonstrate student work over the course of at least 2 months.
Items need to show student work, and examples could include worksheets, reports, tests/quizzes, science projects, etc.
Portfolio items need to be grade-level work.

Each Harmony Portfolio course includes a Parent Handbook, includes a Utah standards alignment outline and a submission schedule for learning logs. The standards alignment outline below shows grade-level topics and can be a guide as you work with your child to compile their portfolio.

Vendor: Harmony Flex Direct

Course Length: Full-year

Curriculum Cost: $50.00

A Harmony Flex course offers parents and students flexibility in selecting course learning materials and activities based on a student’s learning style. Parents support students in working through individualized units of studies that focus on each of the grade-level standards listed below. Students then demonstrate competency by completing and submitting a Flex checkpoint worksheet for each unit.

Parents will have access to educational resources and the Flex Curriculum Resource Directory. The directory will supplement their selected course curriculum and to assist in planning and teaching each unit. The Curriculum Resource Directory will include links to online lesson materials that can be used as part of a unit study related to each unit’s checkpoint worksheet.

Course Requirements

Students in grades K-8 complete 9 units and the correlating checkpoint worksheets each semester, submitting one worksheet every two weeks. Parents and students are able to determine the sequence of the units of study in order to match their selected curriculum, meet individual needs, and customize their learning experience.
The submission of checkpoint worksheets demonstrates attendance in the course. Because our partner schools expect a paced format, students submit work every two weeks. Students who do not submit worksheets as outlined run the risk of falling behind and being considered truant.
Checkpoint worksheets are submitted online, generally as a pdf or jpeg file. Parents must have access to a scanner and a computer. If a scanner is not available, a scanner app for a smartphone can usually be used.
