Introduction to 6th Grade Math

Students will be given high interest narratives that will provide opportunities for oral reading to promote fluency. Focus skills will include identifying the main idea, supporting details, and sequencing events. Story elements such as character analysis, setting, plot, making inferences, and drawing conclusions will be covered. Each passage will be followed by comprehension questions which the students should answer by writing full sentences. *Each session will include the same reading passages, so please only sign up for one session.

This is a two week long program. Students will spend half the day working with author and teacher Marc Tyler Nobleman and the other half of the day students will engage in other activities that may include recess and free time outdoors, games, art, science, cooking, etc.
