Mrs. Harris' Class News
End of Year
Great Year!
I wanted to say thank you to all of you for helping make this year a success. I have enjoyed having each of your students this year. It amazes me how much they have grown as young adults in such a short time period.I wish each of them the best of luck next year, and I cannot wait to see what they accomplish in the years to come.
Kidpreneur
This year the our Kidpreneur unit was outstanding. I am proud of how original the products were. Many of the students used a variety of advertising strategies to draw customers away from competitors and to their business. The adults and students of LES enjoyed their Kidpreneur experience and gave us a lot of positive feedback.
Summer Math Practice and other Practice
We have put together a math review problem set for this summer. It is 8 pages long, so if students plan to complete a page a week they can continue to maintain their 6th grade math knowledge. The packet also includes an answer key so that students can check their answers, and rework the problems they get incorrect.
If students are struggling with a particular topic they can use Khan Academy to assist them. There are videos as well as math games they can play to help. Students can login using my account instead of creating their own.

In addition to math practice, I recommend that students continue to read 20 minutes a day. I know that life gets busy and that cannot always happen. At a minimum students should read a book in each June, July, and August.
