First of all, I would like to say a big Thank You to all of the students and parents in T-124 for making my birthday a wonderful day!!!! Your kindness, thoughts, cards and gifts were wonderful. A special thank you to the Brosigs for delivering flowers and gifts on the morning of my birthday as well as organizing everything. I was truly touched.
Exhibition-
Wow, time flies. Students are currently working on their visual presentations and finishing up their actions. Some groups are farther ahead than others, but I am pushing for students to really get done by the 8th of December.
Our field trip to the Houston Food Bank was a success and I would like to thank April Lloyd and Marianne Fairey for attending as chaperons. Thank you
Exhibition will be in the Cafeteria on December the 15th and our class will present from 12:00-1:00, so mark your calendars.
Math-
We have finished division and multiplication and have just started our unit on fractions, decimals and percents. I do expect this unit to be longer as 6th grade math is mostly these concepts and skills.
Science-
We are continuing with Matter and will most likely cover Matter through December.
Social Studies-
You may have heard your students come home talking about Early Colonial America and especially the English Colonies. We did watch a video that included the Native American point of view with much rich discussion during and after. We will continue with the Colonies and move into the French and Indian War. Expect a permission slip within the next week or so regarding the viewing of a movie that has some gruesome war footage.
Reading-
We will be starting new Literature Circle groups this week.
