Content Area Information for September
English
A lot of the reading will be done in class or during study skills, but occasionally the students will need to complete some of the reading for homework. Here is a link that I created where the students can have the story read to them. Please have the students read along in the book as they listen to the reader, this will help them to improve their fluency. They should also pause the video periodically to summarize what they have read (listened to).
If you have any questions about anything, please contact jcorbelli2@cal-mum.org at any time.
Math
The first unit in math is called Ratios and Unit Rates. Here is a presentation that includes videos that will help your child with lessons if they miss a day or need a little refresher.
Here is a Parents Guide that provides more information on 6th-grade common core math and how you can help at home.
Helpful Links:
Benchmark Fractions-It is important to know these fractions.
Module Two Materials:

Study Tip #1
1. Have your child study a couple of pages of notes.
2. Have him/her turn the notes over and on a separate sheet of paper write down as many things as they remembered from the notes.
3. Have your child go back into the notes and check them against their "BRAIN DUMP."
