Periodic Table of Elements and even creating<br />
our own life size periodic table! The Science<br />
Fair will be held on Friday, <strong>Feb</strong>ruary 1st from<br />

As we reach <strong>Feb</strong>ruary, our sixth grade English classes have just finished analyzing<br />
Types of Conflict, Theme, and Poetry. In the upcoming month, students will<br />
be continuing knowledge of common roots and academic words of the week, as<br />
well as differentiating with our LEXIA assessment. We will also be diving deeper<br />
into non-fiction texts, reinforcing common text structures, and analyzing persuasive<br />
techniques to understand the world of advertising. We will administer<br />
students’ monthly reading comprehension assessment (STAR), as well as incorporate<br />
writing into our FLEX classes to enforce students’ knowledge of common<br />
writing reminders. We look forward to seeing our Spartans make great progress<br />
in this second semester of our school year here at Stafford Middle!
