TR-SIX, the Grade Six class is off to a rolling start, but quickly picking up speed in Language Arts with a number of assignments and projects that we've just begun:
SPELLING: We've started our weekly spelling units, and the first unit work is due on Wednesday, Sept 13th. The questions to complete are Obs. Patt. - 1,2,3
Disc. Patt - 1
Exp Patt. - 1,2
Chall. Wds - 1,4,5
BROWN BAG IT! - an activity where each student shares some information about himself/herself in an oral presentation by bringing objects to talk about collected in a brown paper bag. This activity is due this Monday, Sept. 11th, and each student will present their bag of objects to a small group of classmates, and then some, perhaps up to 10, will present them to the whole class.
GRANDPARENT'S DAY PROJECT - A project with lots of different choices where your son/daughter will try to celebrate and tell about one of his/her grandparents. We are using the website: http://www.grandparents-day.net for possible choices and examples of what has been done by other kids of all ages. Check it out. Grandparents Day is actually this Sunday, September 10th, but this project is due on September 28th.
BAG BOOK REPORT: This book report is still a ways off, not due till the second week of October, but it is important to be reading regulary from a fiction novel or a non-fiction book suitable for you so that you'll finish it in plenty of time to work on your 'bag', objects, and presentation. More details to follow later.
That sounds like a lot, but there will be plenty of time to get it all done, if you use your time well!
