Miss Perris' 6th Grade ELA, Reading, and Social Studies

3/30/18

Happy Friday,

 
A lot of graded work was handed back to all three classes today.  Please make sure to ask your child to see his or her work.
 
Additionally, grades have been updated in Powerschool.  Unfortunately, I am noticing an increasing number of 0s in the grade book.  Parents, please check Powerschool once a week, so you can keep track of your child’s progress.  
 
It is extremely important that your child is doing his/her nightly homework.  They have not been receiving much homework from me, so when I do assign it, I expect it to be completed and on time.  Today in the gold group alone, there were 10 students who did not complete last night’s homework.  
 
Next week your child will begin typing his/her argumentative essay, and they will need access to a computer at home.  If this creates a problem for you or your family, please let me know as soon as possible.    
Spring band concert on Wednesday, 4/4 from 7-9 pm.  Bake sale, Kona Ice, and hot dogs from 6:30 pm.
 
Mrs. Panus could really use help with the Book Fair!
