September 18th | Mrs. Dailing's 6th Grade Language Arts Class

We began to review why writers choose to write something (Author’s Purpose). We took notes in our ISN and discussed types of writing could be Persuasive, Informative, or for Entertainment. For writer’s workshop, we took a writing Pre-assessment so I can see where we need to begin with C.E.R. and various writing skills.

Tomorrow is our first late start day! School begins at 9:00am, buses pick up an hour after they usually do. Don’t forget!

Homework:

Read 100 minutes this week!! (whenever it fits into your busy schedule! Just make sure it totals 100 minutes)
Summer Learning Book talk is due September 27th! Be prepared to present with your finished book talk on this day!
Read Theory – 5 more quizzes passed by the end of class Friday!!

Summer Learning Expectation for all 6th graders:

Read 3-5 novels over the summer (no graphic novels). Be prepared to do a book talk when you arrive in the Fall! This won’t be due on the first day but if you would like to get a head start on the assignment I attached the directions and rubric!
