My Students

There is something extra special about sixth-graders. Their eagerness to learn and be a part of new and exciting middle school adventures is infectious! Fortunately, this is where captivating books and engaging projects can take center stage in the language arts/social studies classroom. Great stories engage my students and finding novels that they connect with is powerful.

Each morning my sixth-graders begin the day with soft background instrumentals and reading high-interest books of their choice.

This is our "sacred" time each day where students dive into other worlds and new perspectives.

My Project

With some current books in our classroom library, students will have a variety of book choices to propel their reading, whatever level that may be.

Sixth-graders are challenged to read 25+ books during the school year, and it begins in our classroom each morning.

Because the comprehension levels and interests of my readers vary greatly, a variety of novels is key. I love reading as many young adult books as possible, so I can connect my sixth-graders with books that match them.

Current and captivating novels help engage readers at every level and reinvigorating our classroom library will be a great help with this!
