Parents and students,
In order for us to meet our reading goal of (at least!) one year’s growth per student in reading, I am assigning the following on-going tasks for the second semester:
- Read one mandatory chapter book of your choice, by the end of the card marking. It must be recorded in your book log, complete with parent initials and summary.
– A book talk presentation with poster/visual aid will be required, where you will summarize and review the book with the descriptive language (no “interesting, funny and nice”!) will be given at the end of term,
2. 200 minutes in Myon (tests on your reading selections are required). You can login through Clever, where I can keep track of your minutes.
Helpful hints:
– Bring headphones to class. In 6th grade, I hope to integrate this into our content cafe choices on a weekly basis. However, you my still need to do some work outside of the classroom.
– Don’t put off for tommorrow what you can do today! One hour per week will ensure that you meet your requirement, and not put it off until the last minute.
