Kwik Star Rewards:
Last week on Friday, students were able to get Mr. Manson and Mrs. Aegerter wet if they sold cards. Students this week that sold $1000 in cards got to have pizza with Mr. Manson and a squirt gun fight on Friday afternoon. Mrs. Sinnwell's homeroom was the top seller this year selling over $14,000 worth of cards. In addition, the top three sellers in each homeroom, as well as the above, also received a prize of extra activity time outside for a week. Students have enjoyed the rewards and will continue to enjoy all of the extra opportunity we will be able to provide thanks to this fundraiser. Thank you to everyone that participated and please let us know if you have not received your cards.
Spotlight of the Week- Ms. Snyder:
What is it like to be in a literacy classroom in 6th grade? Ms. Snyder does a variety of different activities with students on a daily basis. Her room is set up showing Chickasaw pride and inspires students to do their best.
Students always begin class with a bellringer activity that review pervious material or get the juices flowing for the day. Word study and mnemonic devices are used to help students remember class content and later apply to different situations. Students have time to practice independently and also in various group settings. Ms. Snyder is able to maximize learning time and engagement by using learning stations to meet the needs of students. Students are taught expectations for each station and provided meaningful feedback to keep them engaged. Stations also provide an opportunity for differentiation within each activity.
