In Sixth Grade Reading we read from a variety of fiction and non-fiction short stories. We work on strategies to improve our reading skills and love of reading.

Note to parents: I expect each student to come to class prepared to learn. That includes having paper and something to write with each day. Most of my grades are based on effort, so students should come in willing to learn and give it their best shot.
