We are wrapping up this year with a final unit on economics of the Western
World by studying imports/exports from nearby countries.
We will be ending our year with a book study. Holes by Louis Sachar will be
read by all 6th grade students. We will take a deeper look at the writing
style of the author and teach students how to "read like a writer". We will
be identifying literary elements that enhance the writing style and plot
lines. Students will be comparing to the movie to the book at the end of the
unit. They will also be given a final exam after completion of the book.
Stay tuned for events happening the last week of school.
