Literacy is a complex, fluid, evolving collection of communicative practices that require literate learners to perform sophisticated literacy practices for a multitude of purposes.  We expect our students to create, critique, and evaluate texts of various mediums; design, research, analyze, and share information; establish connections with diverse others through a variety of mediums; and to understand the ethical elements of these literacy practices in modern society. 

Arizona’s ELA Standards are literacy skills that work together in a clear progression from kindergarten through 12th grade. Each standard builds on the standard that came before and towards the standard that comes in the next grade level.  

myPerspectives is the adopted ELA curricular resource for grades 7-12.  myPerpsectives contains a variety of text genres of appropriate complexity that allows students to develop, practice, and master the depth and breadth of literacy skills in the Arizona ELA standards.  Each unit in myPerspecives has an essential question that provides context for students to develop and utilize the reading, writing, speaking and listening, and language skills through a variety of performance tasks.
