COMMENTS: Advisory Sem 1
1=This semester, 6th grade advisory has focused on the central question, "Who am I?"  Students have, through various interactive activities and discussions, expanded on this broad idea of identity, and have been asked to think carefully about such concepts as who am I as a sixth-grader, learner, group-member and friend. These conversations have also led to larger conversations about what we believe about learning and growing in the 6th grade. Discussions about our beliefs have allowed us to addres
2=This semester, students have been working hard with their advisors on weekly organizational, classroom and homework goals. We have introduced an online agenda, and a homework calendar that you can find on your child's iPad. Students now have the option of maintaining their written agenda, using their online agenda, or maintaining both to keep themselves organized.  Students are also learning cooperative skills while having fun as they play games or engage in other interactive activities wi

COMMENTS: Intro Sem One
1=It is a pleasure to have #N in humanities. Throughout the first quarter, we focused on the concept of identity through reflecting on who we are as readers and writers. In reading, we focused on retell and creating complex theories. In writing, we worked on our narrative writing skills by creating a memoir. In the second quarter, we moved into studying the history of human origins by practicing our informational reading and writing skills and trying to understand how the past informs our present.

COMMENTS: Reading Pl Sem 1
1=During reading, I've noticed #N reading with volume and stamina. When #N writes responses about fiction, #e generates complex theories about characters and supports it with evidence from the text.  I've noticed #m putting a lot of time and effort to plan #h responses and to explain how the examples relate to #h overall thesis. 
2=#N has been reading with volume and stamina in class. #E writes responses to literature by determining the theme of the story and analyzes character development over the course of the plot. #E cites textural evidence to support #h thinking. #N keeps track of #s thinking by using #h notebook or sticky note and is working on citing evidence from the text to support #h thinking.  
3=During non-fiction #N synthesizes as #e reads, and monitors #h comprehension by keeping track of #h thinking. 
4=#N is s a conscientious student who contributes positively to class discussions. In reading, #h determines the theme of a story and analyzes its development over the course of the plot. #E cites textural evidence to support #h analysis. #E is working on reading with more volume and stamina to improve #h reading overall. 
5=#N has been reading with volume and stamina in class. #H writes responses to literature by determining the theme of the story and analyzes character development over the course of the plot. #E cites textural evidence to support this thinking. #N is working on keeping track of #h thinking by using #h notebook or sticky notes.

COMMENTS: WritingXplX Sem 1
1=#N develops characters, setting, and plot throughout #h story by blending description, action, dialogue, and thinking. #H story is about an important moment and it reads like a through account.

/*    DID YOU KNOW?
/*
/*    You can also import comment files in the,
/*    Teachers Report Assistant format.
/*    There are 1000s around the web.
/*    School Report Writer automatically converts them.
/*
/*
/*    YOUR EXISTING COMMENTS ARE SAFE:
/*
/*    When you upload, you will be shown the comments
/*    you are about to import. You will be told if names
/*    are already in use and you can pick-&-click which
/*    comments to add to your comment bank.
/*
/*
/*    USE 'PLAIN TEXT' (.txt) FILES ONLY:
/*
/*    Import files must be 'plain text'. The easiest way to
/*    create one is to download a comment file from our site
/*    and open it on your computer. On most systems it will
/*    automatically open in a plain text editor. If you
/*    make changes and save, the file should automatically be
/*    saved as plain text. On PCs it will usually open in
/*    NotePad. On Macs, usually TextEdit. In Word, and other
/*    word processors, use 'save as' (see Word File menu)
/*    and then choose file type: 'text only/plain text'.
/*
/*
/*    ADDING HELPFUL NOTES:
/*
/*    Lines starting /* are for notes (like this line).
/*    They are ignored when files are imported.
/*    You can add notes anywhere in the file. Blank lines
/*    are also ignored and can also be included anywhere.
/*
/*
/*    COMMENTS AND LISTS:
/*
/*    Files contain groups of comments and lists.
/*    Each group should start with either:
/*
/*    COMMENTS: your-comment-name-here

/*
/*    List names are 2-30 characters long and contain
