JFK 6th Graders<br />
Read 2,061 Books<br />
The John F. Kennedy Open<br />
Classroom 6th grade class is proud<br />
to announce they read a combined<br />
2,061 books since September! That<br />
equals an average of 39.6 books per<br />
student.<br />
A school year goal of 25 books<br />
per student was set by their English<br />
Language Arts teacher Elaine Zold<br />
and supported by her 6th grade<br />
team teacher Greg Williamson. The<br />
books had to be of different genres<br />
and of substantial length.<br />
The students not only blew<br />
through their collected goal but<br />
wrote about their books on personal<br />
blogs and created several book<br />
clubs.<br />
While celebrating took place<br />
this week with a pizza party, the<br />
goals continue. Mrs. Zold has challenged<br />
every student to read 10<br />
books in 10 weeks this summer.<br />
Way to go, JFK 6th grade readers!<br />
Sixth Grade Breakfast, Farewell to JFK<br />
The 6th grade students of John F. Kennedy had a farewell concert this week in<br />
anticipation of their graduation to middle school in the fall. The 6th Grade Breakfast<br />
included donations of food from 5th grade students and families who were paying it<br />
forward. The students sang songs arranged by Mrs. Brown. Good luck at FMS, students!<br />
