Welcome Carwise 6th grade parents and students

This page is intended for use by my students and their parents to review/make up any necessary work in our language arts classes.

In order to help improve students' vocabulary skills, as well as their reading comprehension skills, the spelling program I use incorporates learning the meanings of prefixes, word roots, and suffixes.) Students are expected to learn the roots, prefixes and suffixes as well as their meanings for each week's test.

 

 2003/2004 Supplies List:

3-ring binder
paper
blue or black pens (NO pencils)
6 dividers

I have been giving chapter tests on the book to insure that the students actually ARE reading.
