Students are learning that effective research presents an answer to a compelling question, demonstrates understanding of the inquiry, and properly cites resources from multiple sources. Today students are analyzing an exemplary anchor paper against the success criteria and detailed rubric in order to become better thinkers and writers. 

Wahoo! Congratulations to McJ's Sixth Grade Advisory for taking second place in the middle school competition to promote Unity and Anti-Bullying. Our group produced a multi-layered presentation including dance and video. It was amazing. Also, congratulations to the Blacksmith and Going Advisories who took first and third place, respectively. Sixth grade swept the middle school competition which says a lot about their effort!

 

NOW WE NEED TO COMMIT TO UNITY, POSITIVITY, AND EXCELLENCE DAY IN AND DAY OUT FOR OUR SELVES AND OUR COMMUNITY! Competitions are exciting, day to day life is where we prove our character.

Sixth Grade Advisory meets together with their Kindergarten Buddies for a pleasant reading afternoon. Mahalo to Ms. Mahin and her kindies for building community with us.
