Cory NickelsHELLO Panthers! This is my 22nd year teaching Advanced English. I currently teach Pre-AP 8th Grade English. My classes entail high order thinking, critical thinking, analysis, high level reading (novels, short stories, and poems). It also includes advanced writing skills/techniques. Classes will be held to a much higher standard, as well as the highest expectations. Rules will be adhered to at all times. These include, but are not limited to, District rules, RMS rules, and teacher's rules. Students will be given "Hard" due dates that will be adhered to. Pre-AP classes will also be exposed to the Research Process. Students will follow the MLA/APA writing processes throughout the year.If you have any questions, please email me at cory_nickels@ecboe.org We are going to have a GREAT year!
