We are so proud of the many Lions who have been working hard on the Learning Opportunities provided for 6th graders! We have been checking your progress regularly and appreciate all of your efforts!
Starting this week, Learning Opportunities are mandatory (required) in order to get credit for classes. So keep up the good work! Mr Curley, following guidelines from the Department of Education, will release more details as they become available. The work on sites like Common Lit and Ixl self-correct so you will be able to see how you're doing. If you submit an assignment on Google Classroom, we are reading it, and making comments. Please scroll down if you don't see the comments right away.
Here is the Link for this week's work. You can also access from the school website.

- In the Google Doc, write for five minutes (or more!) about this question:
Why do you think the parents in this poem “do not play at anything”? What is the author’s message in this line? Explain your answer.
(If you have a thought about this topic that isn’t directly addressed by this question, go ahead and answer it! This is a discussion question, and we invite you to follow your thoughts wherever they take you.)
