As we begin Writer's Workshop...

Thank you for a great first week of school!!!

Just a note for the upcoming week:

**If you did not hand in your summer reading project, I need it by Wednesday. 

We discussed the "Independent Reading Requirements" for this year.  Please read through the document.  Don't forget that you can find your reading sheets on this page!  The first sheet is due this Friday.  I will remind you during class!!

We will continue in Writer's Workshop dealing with our first piece.  I will be adding more Smiley-Face-Tricks to our toolbox!  :)  Please have a purple pen, marker, or crayon in class.  You will need to be able to identify your tricks!!

I am blessed to have a "block" with my 6th grade!  This means that I have them for 2 periods most days.  With this in mind, I will be assigning academic and domain specific vocabulary for the first piece we will be reading this year.  We will discuss the  Big Question, and tie it together with literature.

I am looking forward to this week!!  Not only will we continue to get to know each other in writing, but we will enjoy reading as a class!!

Much love,
Mrs. Reina
