As many of the students already know and some of the parents I am going to be out on maternity leave due to a medical condition until the first week in February. I will still continue to work closely with Sr. Antonia as she covers my medical leave. I will continue to my own lesson plans for her and she will follow the NYS curriculum! She is a wonderful teacher!
Looking at our week in
6th Grade
Week of November 3, 2014
Sr. Becky, Sr. Antonia, Sr. Arshia and Sr. Bonnie
| ELA
This week in ELA we will be continuing our unit on Greek Mythology and The Lightning Thief. Students will work on multi-paragraph writing. Now that I am out on maternity leave Sr. Antonia will be taking over for my classes. She is an excellent teacher and I will still be creating the lesson plans weekly for her and she will continue to follow along with engageny! |

| Science
This week we will continue to learn about cells and functions of the different organelles. Each student will start making their own model of plant/animal cell and we will need some monetary donations in order to purchase supplies. Please kindly donate $2-$5 for the supplies. If you have any questions/concerns you may reach me at arshia10@yahoo.com. |
Math
We are approaching the end of our module. This is a very long unit, and there are parts that students do not understand. I have stepped back this week to ensure they understand. In isolation, the sixth graders understand the concepts, however, when in application they tend to get confused. They were given a large review packet at the beginning of the week to complete by Monday. It is my hope, that we will spend a couple days reviewing and finish up this unit by the end of next week. As always, I welcome you to contact me with any questions or concerns @ bonniemalley77@gmail.com. |
