We are just about halfway through March! Wow! It seems like just yesterday I was preparing for a new school year.
In ELA we have started a new novel called The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman. We began with an introduction about the author. He stated that he enjoys writing children's books to "warp young peoples minds." We all thought that was pretty funny. We did a book study using some of the picture books Neil Gaiman has written. They were pretty strange.
In 6th grade basic skills math, we have been working on ratios and rates. Everyone has been doing very well. We are coming up on a quiz on rates. It will most likely next Thursday.
Annual reviews are coming up quickly. Be on the look out for draft IEP's in the mail. I will be calling home this week to review programming and to see if there are any items you would likes to be discussed at the meetings.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend! Monday will be here soon!
