Work for Monday, March 7 (Day 4)
Thank you very much, Mrs. Mc Millan, for coming in and working with the students. They are great and so are you!
Period 1-Edit
Period 2-English
Paragraphs- With the writing paper provided, choose one of the following topics to compose a well structured paragraph. For the last month, we have gone over the important elements to remember when writing our paragraphs (topic sentence, concluding sentence, 5W’s, supporting sentences, better transition words, descriptive adjectives, compound sentences, editing for mechanics and grammar). You can use this class and period 6 to get far into making the rough copy of your choice. Lots of good options. Don’t rush.
6th Grade Writing Prompts
- What is your greatest talent? How did you discover it?
- Do you think you could go one month without using the Internet? Why or why not? What would be the hardest part?
- In your opinion, is it important for people to study history? Why or why not?
- Write a letter to your future self.
- Have you ever encountered a bully? What did you say to him or her?
- What chores are you responsible for at home? Do you like doing them?
- Why is it important for kids to have chores and responsibilities at home?

You all have these handouts to help you if necessary!
