Will this help with my child's 6th grade ELA homework?

Minnesota 6th graders are expected to read complex literary and informational texts, write clear arguments, and demonstrate strong grammar and vocabulary skills. All of these expectations are defined in the Minnesota Academic Standards for English Language Arts, which guide what students learn throughout the school year.
