Tomorrow is Pi Day!

We will celebrate during math class with various math activities involving Pi. Students may bring in pies, and we will measure their circumference, and then of course enjoy eating pies : )

End of 2nd Trimester

The Second Trimester ended on Wednesday. Report cards will be sent home on Friday, March 17th. As a reminder the report cards have changed in 6th grade. They will look very different and in many ways, way scaled down and basic. This may be alarming at first, but it is to prepare students for the type of report cards they will receive in Jr. High and High School, where students receive a letter grade for each subject/class.

Students will receive one overall grade for the following Subjects:

Math
Reading
Writing (Language and Speech grades have been calculated into the overall reading grade)
Social Studies
Science
Art
P.E.
Citizenship

There should be no surprises for students and parents if they've been checking grades online at iGradePlus on a consistent basis. I remind students weekly to be checking their grades online and missing assignments, however most students do not take advantage of this.

Again, Report Cards go home March 17th.

Kinder Pics Needed

 3/6/17

Hello 6TH GRADE PARENTS,                                                                                     


It’s not too late to submit pictures of your 6th graders for the promotion slideshow 2017!
 
We prefer GROUP pictures of the sixth graders of when they were in kinder. If your child did not attend Rio Del Mar Elementary, then a kinder picture from their school will do.  Pictures can be from birthday parties, field trips, sporting events or school activities.  We need lots of group pictures so the more the merrier. Please try to find some time to go through your pictures and send them in ASAP! We want to include ALL of our 6th graders in the slideshow.
 
Please bring jpeg pictures in using a flash drive with GROUP Kinder Pictures!
Another option is that you can simply upload them to: https://6thgradeslideshow20162017.shutterfly.com/
We need these pictures no LATER than April 1,2017.  If you have any questions, please contact your 6th teacher.
 
The sooner we get these pictures, the sooner we can begin working on finishing the slideshow.
 
Thank you!!!
 
Mr. Kyle, Ms. Birchall, and Mr. Avey

Thank You Parents!
