Homework for August 21, 2025

Hello!

Sixth grade is off to a wonderful start! I am so excited about this class. Everyone is working hard and performing well in class. There are a few items for homework this evening. 

Me Bag - Please remember to fill your "me bag" with four items that tell about you and bring it to class in the morning. We will share what is inside our bags with the rest of the class tomorrow. 

Language - Be prepared to identify the four types of sentences (page 5) and write an example sentence for each. 

History - Please read pages 6-9 (section 1.3) and answer the Comprehension Check 1C questions in your history notebook. 

Have a wonderful evening! 

Memory Verses

As part of our Bible curriculum, each student is required to memorize selected portions of Scripture. Students will highlight and/or mark the assigned verses in their Bible whenever they are given. They will then use their Bible for memorizing the verses; therefore, it is imperative that they have their Bible with them in class every day. Scripture selections will include single verses, as well as partial passages. During Bible class, we will practice reciting the verse(s) one or two times. However, the majority of memorization will need to occur at home. If a student finishes an assignment in class early, they may work on memorizing the verse independently. 

Classroom Supplies Wish List

I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer! I am getting excited to kick off our school year together! 

With school starting in a little over a month, I went ahead and made a little wishlist with supplies for the students and myself.  

You can find it at the link below. 

In advance, thank you for all your contributions to our classroom!

Check out the summer bucket list below from JoyfullyThriving.com for some activities you can do with your family this summer!!
