Dear Sixth Grade Student,
Hello and welcome to sixth grade! I am excited to be joining the Hebron Hawks staff and to be your sixth grade teacher next year. I started my teaching career in 2003 in Topsham, ME. I joined the Oxford Hills District in December of 2016 working at Guy E. Rowe elementary as a sixth grade teacher. I love to read, pet my cats, go for walks and spend time with family and friends.
As you enjoy your summer vacation remember to use some time to read a book, count the stars in the nighttime sky, and observe the nature around you. In other words, keep that brain working as you ride your bike, camp, play a game, or learn a new craft or recipe. You could also practice math through using Freckle or Prodigy. Read, read and read some more; this can be books, magazines, or online articles. Pay attention to what the author is doing to keep you engaged; you will use this for your writing and reading. Be an observer; we will use this in both science and social studies.
This summer I will spend time arranging our classroom to make it a great place for us to learn together. I look forward to working and learning with you during the 2022 - 2023 school year.
To be prepared for our journey please try to have the following materials:
For you: For the classroom:
A 2” binder and 8 pack of dividers OR 6 single subject notebooks and 6 folders in matching colors (1 for each subject: math, reading, science, writing, social studies, other subjects) Water Bottle Pencils (mechanical or regular) Pack of pencil top erasers or regular erasers Pens (choice of color as long as it’s visible) Glue stick Small pencil pouch/box Earbuds or Headphones | Pick one item, if possible, to help us with class supplies. Thank you! Pack of pencils Lined Notebook Paper (refills) Markers (for projects. Sharpies ok for class use- not OK for individual pencil boxes) Tape- refill roll best, double sided tape Post it notes (especially the smaller size) Package of colored copy paper (astrobrights are AWESOME) Glue bottle |
I can’t wait to see each and every one of you this fall! We are going to have an AWESOME year!
