Overview
Welcome to your 6th grade math class! This is one of your core classes that is designed for mastery of the adopted state standards. We are beginning our second year using EdGems math curriculum! Students will have an interactive math book that remains in the classroom, however, they may tear out pages with practice problems to do at home. In addition, we will use a spiral notebook for daily activities and notes. This class will be graded based on the school wide grading policy on page 25 in the handbook.
It is important to remember, there is no such thing as a silly question! If you have a question, it is guaranteed other students in your class do too! It is my goal to create a classroom environment that makes you feel comfortable asking anything!
We no longer use iReady for practice, but we will use the Diagnostic Assessment to determine our strengths and areas of focus. Students will showcase their growth by taking the assessment in the fall, winter and spring!
Students will need a spiral notebook designated for math class only. This will stay in the classroom.
The will focus on transitioning to middle school over the month of September. It will be a time to establish goals and individual needs.
After returning from Round-Up we will hit the ground running with decimal operations!
