LMS VISION:

LEARN. MOTIVATE. SUCCEED.

6th Grade Language Arts: Mrs. JACKSON

This will be an exciting year, and I am here to help guide you through all these new experiences. I am a mom of 5 so I can truly appreciate that school is a “home away from home.” I LOVE being a teacher and feel blessed to have you as part of our TEAM this year! When students, teachers, and parents work together, the result is SUCCESS!

In 6th Grade ELA, we will master North Carolina’s learning standards in English Language Arts. We will READ fiction, nonfiction, and poetry, and include writing, grammar, vocabulary, speaking, and listening in our daily work. There will be many opportunities to select books YOU want to read, or if you have a hard time finding a book you like, my goal will be to help you find that “just right” book for you 

In our class, we will focus on learning and the tools needed to successfully master our objectives. If a student doesn’t understand something, I will help them work on it until they’ve “got it” to meet their learning goal. The opportunity to learn and improve comes with practice and we will all practice this year to meet our learning goals!

Supplies for 6th Grade ELA:

  • two composition notebooks (we keep these in class)
  • earbuds for computer
  • box basic colored markers, pens (any color), pencils, box basic colored pencils

Parents & Students:

Communication is the KEY!

  • Email:

Please don’t hesitate to email me with any questions or concerns you have:

  • Eboard:

Be sure to check the 6th grade eboard daily.

The eboard is a wonderful online tool that provides ONE place where all of the 6th grade teachers post daily homework assignments, important dates, and practice websites for their subject. Instead of visiting each teacher’s webpage daily, you are able to go to ONE site 

  • Agenda:

The LMS Agendais an organizational tool we use each day to write down homework and assignments. Homework will be written on the board and students will copy the information in their Agenda when they first enter class.

  • Parent Portal:

Another tool provided by our district to maintain communication regarding student grades and progress is the online Parent Portal. Visit the link listed above and create your account.
