Week of December 2 - 6, 2019

Wednesday HW
6A Notes:  This is homework for the grade 6 class I teach.
1.  20 minutes of reading.
2.  Because the Book Report is due tomorrow I did not assign other homework.  I set aside plenty of time to complete the MMS pages 36-37 pages in class.  We will correct this work tomorrow.
3.  The next book report is due tomorrow
4.  Food and Toy Drive items can be brought in to class.
5.  Ensure that your Math set, which ideally includes a good compass, is at school each day during this math unit on Geometry.  A reasonable set of equipment includes a protractor that is not scratched up too much, a short, transparent ruler, and a good compass that is not too wobbly in the hinge and pencil attachment areas.  I can provide school issue materials, but they are typically in iffy condition.
