On Monday, Ms. Hagensee ventured into the sixth grade Reading classroom to present the 2013 Rebecca Caudill nominees. The sixth grade students will be choosing and reading 3 of the 20 nominations. Students should be reading their first novel this week. While reading, we encourage students to take notes on post-it and their reading project summary worksheet. Along with taking the "Accelerated Reader" tests, the students will complete a project. There are a total of five projects. The sixth graders will choose only 3 projects, one for each novel.
The sixth grade projects include:
1. A Timeline Poster
2. Character Collage
3. A Movie Trailer
4. Top Five List (write about the top 5 Themes represented in the novel)
5. Comic Strip
