In 6th grade Language Arts we will focus on becoming stronger readers and writers. To become flexible, resilient readers, I want students to have a toolkit of strategies for dealing with text complexity, and want them to read broadly and deeply, alert to the intricacies of texts and to the power of language. Students will become extraordinary writers, who use details and powerful introductions and conclusions. They are also expected to become reflective and critical thinkers. It is my goal to ensure that you are prepared for high school, college and the world beyond. I want you to leave my class as stronger writers, readers and speakers, but I also want you to leave with an open mind, a positive attitude and the confidence to succeed in life.

Weekly Calender 5:4-5:8

Good Morning! Attached is this week's work calendar. I have also created extra credit for students who would like to take advantage of that, through No Red Ink. The assignment is open for any student who wants to earn extra credit towards their ELA overall grade, but I especially encourage those students who have academic alerts to take advantage of this opportunity. This will be the only opportunity to earn extra credit for the remainder of the school year. I will post more detailed instructions on Google Classroom.
