Ms. Gibbs' Math Class
You are in Ms. Gibbs' Math Class!
Hello, this is definitely going to be a year to remember! I am excited to start the school year as a COBRA. I am eager to get to know each of my students and their families. I have two amazing children of my own, and I have one exceptional granddaughter! Katie is a graduate of Austin Peay State University, and she is one of the few women firefighters here in Clarksville! Austin is a graduate of Rossview High School and is an EMT with Clarksville Montgomery County EMS! Katie and her husband, Dennis have two beautiful daughters, Holland and Saylor (I am their "Mimi"). I grew up as an "Army Brat" and like so many Clarksville families we ended up staying.
I earned my Bachelors in education and my Masters as a Reading Specialist both from Austin Peay. Then I earned my Ed.S degree from Liberty University in Educational Leadership and Administration. Some of my hobbies include jogging, hiking, kayaking, swimming, or almost anything in the sun!
Sixth grade will be full of learning opportunities and challenges! Learning mathematics is like climbing a ladder; you need all the steps underneath you in order to reach the steps above you. I am a firm believer in the power of collaborative learning, with that said, we will learn to work together and learn from each other. Math is not a spectator sport as you will learn by doing!
Communication
Communication between home and school is a very important part of your child’s education. I believe that parents should be well informed of their child’s academic progress and behavior in the classroom (whether that be a traditional or virtual classroom). I will be sending various forms of communication home throughout the year. Please start off the year by downloading the REMIND App and join my class (see directions below).
1. Make sure you join my Remind Class so we can communicate in real time over the course of the school year (class code will be sent home via your student).
2. Progress Reports will go home every three weeks (you will login to Power School to view this).
3. Report Cards every nine weeks
4. Power School is linked under the CMCSS's webpage, and I will be updating your child's grades on a weekly basis.
5. Please contact me via the Remind App, email, or phone if you have any questions or concerns in regards to your child's education.
Remind APP
I will be using the REMIND APP this year to keep in touch with parents and students outside of school. The app will allow me to keep you up-to-date on classroom events and enable us to text one another in one convenient location. Please make your name in this app your child's name or put your child's name in ( ).
There are two ways of joining my Remind class which will be shared with students in class and sent home via your student.
Please click the link above and find the unit that you are looking for and in that unit you will find a visual poster for EVERY concept and skill that we are or have learned this year in 6th grade Math!
Classroom Links
These are just a few of the classroom links that your child will use this year in my math class:
