WELCOME TO MRS. MILLER'S HOMEPAGE 

October 19, 2021

We are having a PBIS reward day on Friday, Oct 22. Students need to bring in a rock, approximately the size of their palm, as smooth as possible, with no jagged edges. We are painting the rocks and placing them in our rock river in the courtyard of our school grounds. Thank you!

On Friday, students received a form from the nurse that must be returned. Please ask them about this if they haven't showed it to you. It is in regards to physicals that 6th grade students are required to have this school year. Thank you.

Our 1st Assessment is tentatively scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 19. I posted a review in our Google Classroom on the stream and under materials in the Classworks tab on Oct. 10th. Students should be reviewing, as this Assessment will encompass the entire first unit.

Good Evening. I posted a reminder on Google Classroom to the students regarding Daily Check Ins. There are quite a few students that have a number of Daily Check In assignments UNDONE. I constantly remind them to make sure they are completing them. These are HOMEWORK assignments and should be completed nightly (the night they are assigned). Since Mr. Walsh advised parents/guardians to visit FOCUS to see where your child's grade stands at this halfway point in the first quarter, I posted a message on Google Classroom letting students know that by tomorrow, any UNDONE Daily Check Ins will be marked with a zero so that you have an accurate picture of where their grade stands. Additionally, I will be posting their homework grades up to this point in the quarter (out of 5 assignments). If you have any questions, please feel free to send me an email.

Hi everyone! I understand that Mr. Walsh notified parents/guardians that it is now the half way point of the 1st quarter and a good time for you to visit Focus to see where your child's grade stands.  By the end of the day Monday, I will post your child's homework grade UP TO THIS POINT IN THE QUARTER. Right now, only their Daily Check Ins are posted.

Enjoy your weekend.

Tomorrow (Friday, Sept. 17th) is PICTURE DAY!! You may dress up!

Dear Parents:

I am sorry, but I will not be able to attend the Back to School Night Video Presentation live. I have made a video recording that you can view at your convenience. Please log into your child's Math Google Classroom and the link will be in the upper left hand corner of the classroom banner. If you have any questions that I may not have answered, please don't haesitate to send me an email. Again, my apologies for not being able to attend.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Miller

Happy Friday! 

That sounds funny. We aren't even back in school and I'm celebrating the weekend. Today is August 27, 2021 and although it is summer, teachers really do prepare for the school year throughout the entire summer (here and there). So here I am updating my website. I hope you are enjoying your summer. I have really enjoyed mine. I spent a lot of time just sitting outside in the sunshine with my puppy on our deck reading books and in the pool cooling off. It has been nice and relaxing. But as the summer winds down, I have a lot of preparations and planning to do. 

I am excited to get to know each and every one of my students and their families. I hope you are excited about starting your 6th grade careers, back to in person learning and being the leaders of the school. You've got a very important role as 6th graders. There are a lot of younger students looking up to you, thinking "Wow, look at them! They are so big! I wish I was that big! I wish I was in 6th grade and could do that!" So it is so important that what ever it is you are doing, that it is the RIGHT thing. Say hello to them in the hallway. If they look scared or nervous, give them a smile. If they need help, offer them help. Even if they aren't the younger ones. Your fellow 6th graders may be nervous, too. Or maybe it's you that is nervous. It's ok. This is my 14th year as a 6th grade teacher, and I'll still have buterflies on the first day of school. But we will all in the same situation: it's our first day for this school year. 

I am looking forward to meeting all of you soon. Until then, enjoy the rest of your summer. 

Mrs. Miller :)
