DISCOVERING NEW ADVENTURES THROUGH
Agenda:
Important AnnouncementsWe are beginning to study Greek and Latin roots of words instead of weekly vocabulary. There will still be a test on these on Friday the same as the vocabulary quizzes. Understanding these word roots is vital to figuring out unknown vocabulary. We took grammar notes today and will be following the C.O.P.S. strategy in preparation for revising our How-To books. C.O.P.S. stands for Capitalization, Organization, Punctuation, and Spelling. Students wrote down rules for capitalization and properties of proper nouns. These notes can be quizzed at any time and must be maintained in either a reading notebook or binder. The first semester Final Exam is coming up soon! The test date will be Tuesday, December 17. We will be reviewing everything in class with a major review on the Friday and Monday before. The exam is comprehensive of this semester, but will emphasize skills from this quarter.

Mrs. McCartneyIt is my goal to help every student reach their potential. Sixth grade can be hard, but it is the first step of responsibility and independence in a journey that lasts a lifetime. Archives
