Students are reviewing how to write a Text Dependent Analysis (TDA) this week. They will be writing their first one in sixth grade during the unit 1, week 6 testing on September 18 and 19. Week six testing will also consist of two reading comprehension passages and a grammar and vocabulary test.
Speaking of testing. The MAP test for Math will be September 9 and 10. All students will take the test with their first period teacher. This is not a timed test, so students will all have the time they need to complete the test.
Literature groups will meet September 12. Your child is either reading The Cay, Freak the Mighty,or Small Steps. All students will complete the book and have their literature response complete to bring to literature groups. Students will get their new book after literature groups meet.
Fall is here! Enjoy this beautiful weather!
