6th grade ELA is broken down into multiple different standards that students will work towards to master. Reading, writing, listening, speaking, and vocabulary are the standards all 6th graders will master by the end of the school year.

Mr. Altieri's Social Studies

6th grade social studies is based on the history and geography of the Eastern Hemisphere, including the development of cultures, civilizations, and empires, interaction between societies, and the comparison of trends in government and economics. It also incorporates elements of some of the social sciences. The course is divided into eight Key Ideas that cover a time span from pre-history into the 1300s.
