small medium large Welcome to the 2007-2008 school year! We are really excited to have the opportunity of teaching you child in the sixth grade. Janet England will be teaching all Math, Science and Social studies classes and Pat Allen will be teaching all Reading, Spelling and English classes. Grades will be taken a number of ways: tests, quizzes, worksheets, workbooks, daily work. Parent Letters are sent home every Monday, unless we are out of school then it will be on Tuesday. This includes all papers graded from the past week along with any other important information. Sixth grade does not send out mid-nine week reports,since we send home weekly reports. Students have been told to keep all papers sent home, or write the grades down so they can keep up with their average of each subject. We feel you can keep up with your child's progress better with the weekly reports. ********** 6TH DAILY HOMEWORK POLICIES 1. ALL WORK must be complete and on time to receive a 100 on all your homework grades. 2. Make-up work will be given the same number of days to make up the (excused) absence (EX: 1 day absent =1 day to make up). Student is responsible to make sure all work is made up. PLEASE SEND A NOTE TO THE TEACHER WHEN STUDENTS ARE OUT. 3. Late - Make-up - Corrections - Incomplete - (Late Write- offs) All students will be required to come back at lunch P.E. time and P.E. activity time until ALL work is correctly completed. 4. Late - Incomplete -Unexcused absence Work will receive a deduction of points on the homework grade for each day the assignment is not correctly completed and turned in. After the 3rd a zero will be recorded. If you have any questions concerning this or other concerns, feel free to call us at school . You may call us from (1st nine weeks 11:20-11:50 and 1:00-1:30) 1:00 to 2:00 (rest of the year) any day. 615-536-5332 Each nine-week grading period, your child will need 17 AR points for a fourth of their reading grade. Two Points will be required in non fiction, the rest will be students choice. Reading is a very important aspect of learning, and I know you’ll encourage your child to read books of interest to him or her. Each nine-week grading period, your child will be required to do a science experiment for a grade. They may do this at anytime during the nine-week period. We also require a group Science fair project and Social Studies Fair project. Students may also do their own project in each of these for extra credit. Test schedule (unless interrupted by a short week etc...) Spelling tests are given on Thursday. Reading vocabulary tests are every Wednesday. Reading Tests are given on Friday. Math Tests are given on Friday. All other test subjects are given when the chapter ends. Study sheets are give out at least two days before a science or social studies test. All students need to work on the Study Island Web Page for continued learning on State TCAP sixth grade subject skills. *********
