SIXTH GRADE KNIGHTS TEAM

  Develop a passion for learning. If you do, you   will never cease to grow. ~ Anthony D'Angelo  

WHAT'S HAPPENING???
 

 THE KNIGHTS TEAM IS ALWAYS BUSY!!   We are working hard to complete the novels we are reading.  Touching Spirit Bear is being read by first, third, and fifth periods.  The Lost Garden is being read by second period.  We are using a variety of Literacy Strategies to aid in comprehension.  We write almost daily in our journals and are enjoying the freedom to express our views in a variety of ways.  Weekly homework grades are coming up.  Thanks for encouraging your child to always give 100%!!
