This will be a great way for the sixth graders to wrap up the school year!
Summer Review
- Reading: While reading 20 minutes a day is still in students' best interest, I understand that they will be busy. I would recommend that at a minimum students read one book in June, one book in July, and one book in August before school starts.
- Math: I have put together a math review packet for students. As opposed to doing it all at once, I would suggest students complete one page a week so that they are practicing their math skills over an extended period of time. I have included two documents, the student work pages and an answer key. Students will likely need to complete their work on separate paper and should NOT use a calculator for computations. Should they encounter difficulties while working through the problem sets, students should refer to Khan Academy for assistance.
Thank You
Thinking about this school year, I feel I need to thank each and every one of you! Thank you for your continued support as I worked with your children throughout the last nine months. My students impacted me in ways that I never imagined were possible. Their kindness and willingness to make personal sacrifices in order to assist others is something rare and beautiful. Their drive to support others and their deep emotional connections with one another demonstrates that all nineteen of these kids are not just good students, but are growing to be great people. I know this is not something the students learned in my classroom alone, and the students' actions continually serve as an example of the big heart the small town of LeRoy truly has.
Whether they are returning to LeRoy schools or are starting a new academic adventure somewhere else, I know each 6P student will be extremely successful next year. I feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to work with this group of intelligent, kind, creative, and passionate young men and women. Before the end of the school year I will share my personal email address with the students so that they can continue to communicate with me, should they desire to do so. Although our school year is ending and I am about to embark on a new journey in Texas, I would love to hear how students are doing and would be more than happy to remain a resource for them. Please encourage your students to continue to share their academic and personal successes with me.
Again, thank you for your support this year and for assisting me in having a phenomenal last year in LeRoy.
Thanks,
Bonnie Pollock
