Mrs. Frazier’s ELA Class 2015-2016 Welcome to a new school year! 6th Grade brings so much to look forward to; being the oldest in the school, getting closer to Junior High, field trips, end of the year celebration, just to name a few.

  4. Respect should be the first thing you give. Respect is different than just following policies and rules. Respect is earned when it is given. When we respect each other, our class time together will go very smoothly. I do not expect you to be perfect and you should not expect me to be perfect, but we should expect that we will respect each other’s mistakes and differences. Class time: (very brief synopsis) Reading: -required to read Accelerated Reader (AR) books; 2 per marking period. -we will be reading novels and nonfiction books together in class -we will be reading some books from our anthology Spelling/English: -you will get a Spelling Menu once per week -you will have an English test once per week Writing: -we will use the Write Tools (green, yellow, pink, blue highlighters again) -you will learn Argumentative, Narrative, and Informational Writing
