Hi there!
Our goal is to make your life easier with this Grade 6 long-range plan for the 2023 Ontario
Language curriculum.
In this plan, you will find a day-by-day and month-by-month breakdown for how you can organize
your Language program for your students, using resources found on our TPT store: Teacher
Resource Cabin. These resources are also available on our website by the same name, Teacher
Resource Cabin.
If you have our resource “Grade 6 Ontario 2023 Language Bundle (FULL YEAR),” you already
have access to all the resources featured in this long-range plan.
By using our long-range plan for Grade 6 Language, you can ensure that you are providing your
students with a well-rounded Language education that covers all necessary topics and skills. Our
plan is designed to save you time and energy by providing you with a clear road map for the entire
school year.
Happy Teaching!
