Curriculum:
Our classroom uses various tools to make sure all students are enriched with 6th grade content. For math, we use a variety of resources, games and iReady. For reading and writing, students practice and use the standards during read alouds, reading comprehension activities, modeling, engaging with peers and practice, practice, practice. Since reading and writing is a big area, lessons and activities are gathered from many spaces, including teacher pay teachers and this year we will be using SCOPE magazine subscription. With Science, students will continue to see Mrs. Chu. We use our district curriculum for social studies.
Because every year has been different, there are always adjustments and various ways to find what works for the group of students for that year. I hope as I get to learn about the students, to see how to prepare them for not only the next grade level, but beyond!
