Greetings from Room 110!  I'm looking forward to a rich year with you this year.  Our goal in 6th grade Language Arts and Literature is for every child to become a lifelong writer, reader, and thinker.  Haven’s 2021/22 goal is for every child to be respectful, responsible, and ready to learn.  We want children to be successful at making connections not only from one class to another, but also from each class to the real world.  In order for these things to happen, we’d like to suggest the following guidelines for our 6th graders:

1.   Treat the school, each other, and oneself with respect.  In order to get respect, one must give it.

2.   Come to class prepared and on time. Failure to arrive on time takes learning time away from everyone.

      Check to make sure you have everything you need each day before class.

3.   Make sure to get any assignments missed during an absence.

 

4.   Have a novel with you every day for reading.  If you finish an assignment early, you can fill any extra time with reading.

 

5.   Check grades at this link here:  (coming soon!) 

6.   I am available to meet with you individually for a phone or Zoom call when possible. Don't wait if you have questions...email me or let's have a Zoom call!
