I hope you are enjoying a return to some routine as we have gotten back to school the last couple days. I know I have! In our 6th grade Course 1 math class, we were just reaching the end of Ch. 4 when the snowstorm hit. The last few days, we have been reviewing the chapter getting ready for a test coming up on Monday.
Starting Friday, January 20th, 6th grade Course 1 math students in my class have a great opportunity every Friday afternoon. Yvonne Bradshaw, mom of 7th grader Ben, has asked for a way to help out with middle school math in some way. She is experienced in teaching math and eager to assist wherever needed. What we came up with was a weekly, optional, study session every Friday afternoon after school until 4:00 for our 6th graders in Math Course 1. If you find your 6th grader struggling with the concepts we are discussing in math, or think they just need some extra reinforcement, they can stay after school every Friday for some help from Mrs. Bradshaw. I will also be there sometimes to help out as my schedule allows. I feel this is a great opportunity for our 6th graders to really boost their confidence moving forward as they can get some extra and more direct instruction.
Thanks to Mrs. Bradshaw for being willing to help out and volunteer her time to make this happen! If you have any questions, let me know.
