Welcome to my math class! Sixth grade math focuses on rational numbers: fractions, decimals, percents, ratios, etc. We will investigate these topics through a variety of assignments and projects. We will also explore some algebra concepts in preparation for Pre-Algebra and 7th grade Math.
Math can be a challenging and sometimes overwhelming subject. I am available everyday during RA, and during lunch to help students with assignments, to review concepts, or to talk about how math class is going. I highly encourage students and parents to stop by, call, or email me if you have questions or concerns. I am looking forward to getting to know you and your parents. It is going to be an exciting year!

Signed Homework
Students can receive a bonus point on each and every homework assignment by having a parent initial the homework. Those bonus points add up if done consistently and can make a difference in a student’s grade. These bonus points are the only extra credit I offer.
Weekly Grade printouts
Students receive a weekly grade printout (usually every Thursday). Please check it for accuracy and take care of missing work as soon as possible.
