We continued MSTEP testing for Language Arts today. Any student that did not complete MSTEP will be pulled for make-up testing tomorrow.  We will continue with The Prince and the Pauper tomorrow!  All students will need to bring their The Giver novels to class every day starting Monday!

Homework

• Read 20 minutes and respond on reading log (3 responses this week to alleviate MSTEP stress)

May 12th Field Trip Information

On May 12th, we are going to see Beauty and the Beast with the entire 6th grade, followed by lunch at the Fairlane Mall food court.  This field trip is part of our language arts folktales curriculum and a written response will be collected as a summative grade once we return. Any student that chose not to participate in the field trip (excused absences included) must still fulfill this grade requirement by reading the Beauty and the Beast folktale and writing up a C.E.R. response citing textual evidence to support the given prompt. We are encouraging all students to participate in this field trip but understand that not all students show interest or are able to attend. To be fair to all students, the written response is a requirement for everyone.
