This blog was created to communicate with my 6th grade English students and parents (if any are brave enough to be bloggers or followers) about assignments for my class. I will provide examples to the homework and give holiday assignments using this method. Periodically, I will provide links to other sites for assistance in reading, ESL help, grammar, and punctuation. I hope you will use this for the purpose it has been created.
