Good afternoon and happy Monday 6th grade. A quick note before homework: I am missing a few poems and a decent amount of "First Day of School" and "The Road Less Taken" work. Students that did not complete them fully (got a bad grade) or that did not turn them in at all are able to resubmit/turn them in by next Wednesday 3/4. After that day, the gradebook will be closing up for those assignments. I will be passing back work and handing out progress reports that need to be signed tomorrow. Thank you for signing them by Thursday and getting them back to me.
Homework until Thursday will study island and I Am Malala. Check the calendars for chapters and the weeks Study Islands are below. Thanks so much.

Good afternoon parents. Most students have an essay to finish. While I try not to give homework on weekends, the young people had a lot of time to get this work done and did not use their class time very well. Thank you for your help in getting those assignments done.

 

Additionally, next week is going to see a heavy reading load for our novels, Jekyll and Hyde for 7th grade and I Am Malala for 6th. While there is no reading homework, it would really help the students if they got a start during this long weekend.

 

Lastly, I just got a new list of Study Island priorities so I will be revising the calander this weekend, but the good news is that we won’t have to try and fly through as many every week.

 

Thank you guys for all of your hard work and help. Hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Good evening 6th grade. Homework is:
Chapter 8 for 6a and 9 for 6b. No summary, but we need to come ready to take a quiz.
Study Island are Technical Meaning and Meaning and Tone.

A study Island note. Students will be responsible for 4 study islands a week plus two makeups for the next four weeks. I will send this weeks 4 and makeups shortly. Remember, students have to have an 80% and they have until the end of the week have all for the week done. As a rule of thumb, it would help to have two done by the end of Tuesday night and the other two and any makeups by Thursday. Class time is given on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
