Welcome to 6th Grade Excel ELA! We're going to use our reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills to make sure our voices are heard on all sorts of important issues this year. Here are some vital things to know:
I will use Google Classroom as a means of communicating assignments with the whole class. (Please see the tutorial on the Resources page if you need help.)
I expect all students and parents to check Student/Parent Portal weekly to see if there are any missing assignments. Make sure you have both portals set up by going to this site, and make sure all of your contact information is updated. Should you notice an assignment is missing, make sure to communicate with your child and check Google Classroom to see if they can independently resolve the issue and turn in the work. (Please see the tutorial on the Resources page if you need help.)
You can always contact me at randi.skaggs@jefferson.kyschools.us or through the Thrillshare Rooms app. (JCPS sent out information over the summer about how to claim your account.)
This Course Syllabus gives you an overview of everything we'll learn this year.Â
