Sixth grade open house is tomorrow afternoon and evening. Can you believe your summer is officially coming to an end? I can't! As you think back over the last few months, what sticks out in your head? Is there some place that you went on vacation? A person that you hung out with pretty much all day, everyday? Is there a spot on the couch with a permanent dent from being sat on all day? Share with us the highlights of your summer! Even if, like me, you did nothing at all. I can't wait to meet you all and get this year going! Enjoy the last few days of this wonderful summer you have left! See you soon! ~Mrs. Thatcher<P>So, you've been a sixth grader for a little over a week now! What do you think? Are you still nervous? Can you get in your locker, yet? What about your classes? Are there any that seem easy? Any that are hard? Let us know how your sixth grade experience is going so far!</P> <P>~Mrs. Thatcher :)</P> <P>&nbsp;</P><P>Now that we have learned the parts of the microscope, it's time to use them. This week we will be looking at and drawing the WOWBug. Aren't you excited? Are there some things that you would like to look at under the microscope? Let me know. Who knows, we might get to look at some them. </P> <P>~Mrs. Thatcher :)</P><P>Fall Break has come and gone and now we have yet another long weekend! What are you going to do? Read your AR book? Study your science flashcards? Maybe get caught up on some math homework? Whatever it is, let us know! I think I might make a trip to the zoo! Have a great weekend!</P> <P>~Mrs. Thatcher :)</P>
