*Give evidence to support your topic sentence (use the evidence sheet)
*Explain the evidence!! This is the part that many students are forgetting.  How does this evidence prove their position??  It’s the 'so what'??  You cannot arbitrarily throw in a quote from    the text and say that it proves your point.  Say, “This proves. . .  or This shows. . ."
*Give more evidence (we have 2 pieces of evidence on the evidence sheet.)
*Explain the evidence!!  Say, “This proves. . .  or This shows. . ."

Conclusion:    
*Start with “In conclusion, “ and restate the claim or position (people should not be required to keep pit bulls as pets.)
*Restate each reason (make them strong statements)
*Explain what would happen if your argument goes unnoticed.

Happy Friday,
Happy end of the 2nd trimester!!  Just a reminder that your child will be starting a new elective class beginning on Monday.   
Final grades are due on Monday as well.  To be honest, I am finding it difficult as far as grades for Reading/Literature.  There were approximately 8 students in each core classroom who did not reach their AR goal (a couple of students had 0 points.)  I think it is a shame to give an 11 or 12 year old a D or an F in 6th grade, but when the student doesn’t do the required work, what is the right answer?  Unfortunately, there are many, many students who have admitted to me that they are not doing the nightly reading and/or not reading on the weekends.  So, I want to make it clear that daily reading is a requirement in Language Arts.  It is part of the nightly homework and needs to be completed.  I would certainly appreciate whatever you can do at home to support your child in reading every day.  Remember, too, that they are not too old to be read to, or to have them read to you.  If your child is struggling with finding a book, please ask them to come see me.

Hello Parents,
Please talk with your child and remind them that they are in school to learn.  Disruptive behavior impacts the learning of all students.  Please review the following with your child:
1.  One person talks at a time in the classroom.
2.  Raise your hand and wait for permission to speak.
3.  Think before you speak — if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say it!
4.  Students are expected to follow along when the teacher is reading (whether it is our core novel or one of the textbooks)
5.  Focus your attention on the person who is speaking (whether it is the teacher or a fellow student)
6.  EVERYONE deserves to be treated with respect (this goes for students and teachers)
Both Ms. Harrington and I have a lot of curriculum left to teach before the end of the school  year!  State testing begins at the end of April/beginning of May, and we want to prepare students for what’s ahead.  THANK YOU for taking the time to talk to your child.  We appreciate your support! 
In celebration of the end of the trimester, this week is SPIRIT WEEK.  The 1st period class with the most participants will receive a pizza party!

Heart & Sole is a Girls on the Run after-school program that gives 6th-8th grade girls the tools to be healthy, happy, and confident. Heart & Sole is more than just a running program! The 10-week curriculum focuses on the whole girl - body, brain, heart, social, spirit - using fun games and activities to teach her how to set goals and boundaries, ask for and receive help, set up a support system, and more! Physical activity is woven in the program, helping the girls increase their strength and endurance for the Girls on the Run 5K on May 18. Registration is open!
