9/12-9/16

Now that we have gotten all of our pretests out of the way, we will be diving into text books and activities this week!
In math, we will begin with a book scavenger hunt to get the kids acclimated to their new text book and then our focus will be whole  number operations for the rest of the week.
In ELA, we will start our week with a trip to the Monroe County Library.  Hopefully all the kids can get their own library card and check out some great books for AR!  I will be Rigby testing with the students to determine the best AR goal for them.  They will have their goals by the end of the week.  When we finish with testing, we will begin the novel Shiloh and also start working in our ELA text books with vocabulary and grammar.
Important Dates:
Wednesday, 9/14/16- PICTURE DAY

I hope everyone had a great first week last week!  Cooler weather this week is the best news I have heard since my husband went for a 2 point conversion in over time to win the football game on Friday! :)

Welcome to the 6th Grade!!!

I would like to give a very warm welcome to all of my students and parents that will be joining me on this wonderful journey this year!  I know it is a scary thing to come to a new building and begin the year here at the Junior High!  I promise all of you that I will be a warm smile to each and every one of you and make this transition year as smooth and enjoyable as I possibly can!  This is my 10th year teaching 6th grade and it is such a unique and fun age!  I am very much looking forward to getting to know all of you and making this year one of the best!  Please take the time to check out my website, there is a lot of important information on there.  I will also update this blog each week so you can have an idea of what is coming up in OUR classroom for the week!!
Thank you!
