About me

My Name is Kurt Litsinger and this is my teacher blog. I am currently teaching 6th grade Special Education at Salmon Bay K8. I started this blog to help students and parent connect with me about assignments, class expectations, and activities.

How to use this blog...

This blog is a listing of the assignments and activities that happened in 6th grade. Students and parents can look at any given day to find a summary of lessons, goals, activities, assignments, and other information they may need.

Welcome back, Kurt

I let the blog slip a bit.  I spent Monday and Tuesday at a very informative and engaging conference on social thinking and ways to instruct social skills to students.  I look forward to improving students' self awareness of how their actions affect others.

Stuff to know!

On Friday, your middle school students have a Halloween Block Party.  This will be the second half of the day and activities your student can choose from include dancing, watching a movie, karaoke, and finishing school work (could be mandatory for some).

In math,
There is a Chow as usual, but also a practice homework sheet on rates and ratios.

Language Arts,
As usual, read 30 minutes and write a post-it annotation.  In class, your student is working on writing personal narratives, and sentence structure.  Ask them about subjects and predicates!

Science,
Cells!  They're little, but kinda a big deal!

Social Studies,
Students are continuing to take notes in their notebook about ancient civilizations and keep up on current events.
