Middle School English
Well…at long last our year is winding down! I wanted to say how blown away I was by our 6th and 7th graders on the Reading portion of their Performance Series Tests. All their reading and hard work paid off and I am very proud of them. Reading, however, isn’t just for a few months…it’s for life!!!!
So, during this last quarter, 6th grade is reading “Game Changers” a great story of friendship and teamwork between members of a Pop Warner football team. And 7th grade is reading novels of their choice and loving their sustained silent reading time during class. Our 8th graders are also reading novels of their choice but have been extremely busy preparing for May Crowning (which was phenomenal!) and making posters for Cultural Awareness Day! God bless each of you and your families and I hope too see everyone before summer break!
Peace in Christ,
Mr. Oiler
