CRAWFORD'S CLASS

Welcome! My name is Melanie Crawford. Previously I have taught throughout California, but this will be my tenth year teaching at Arroyo Seco Junior High School. I went to school (K-12) in Santa Clarita and then attended Sonoma State University where I received my B.A. in English, my teaching credential, and my M.A. in Education Technology. My husband is also a teacher in the William S. Hart School District. We have three young daughters that we are enjoying raising in the Santa Clarita community. I am looking forward to another wonderful year!... we will be building skills in reading, writing, speaking, grammar, and vocabulary. Students will be expected to: read and respond to age appropriate literature, write effectively for a range of audiences and a variety of purposes, demonstrate an understanding and control of the English language in written work, use conventions correctly, and the writing process appropriately.
