Sixth Grade News
Welcome to Sixth grade at St. Joe's!
My name is Mr. Fisher, I am so pleased to join the teaching family at St. Joe's. In addition to being the 6th grade homeroom teacher I will be teaching 4th, 5th and 6th grade Social Studies as well as 6th grade English Language Arts.
All of my social studies students, regardless of grade level, will become accomplished navigators based on the lessons in map skills that I will offer. Fourth grade will be focusing on the European explorers and the lives and experiences of the early American settlers. Fifth grade will branch out this year and study the people and governments of the regions in the Western Hemisphere. Sixth grade will concentrate on the development of civilizations in the Eastern Hemisphere beginning with Paleolithic and Neolithic man.
The novels in 6th grade Language Arts will be closely connected to our Social Studies lessons. We are beginning the year with a very entertaining novel, Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan. I know you will enjoy this book and we will travel this road of Greek gods and monsters together.
