Day 1: 9/6/17 - A Day - First Day of School

Good Morning ALL New 6th Graders,
          Welcome back to school and welcome to 6^th Grade. I hope you all had a wonderful summer vacation. Each day as you enter the room I want you to read the morning message and complete the "Do Now" tasks assigned. I am looking forward to getting to know each and every one of you. It is going to be a very exciting year.
         The first thing I want you to do is to select a seat. Leave all of your supplies in your backpacks. We will take care of them later. Next, pick up a piece of card stock from the brown table and work on creating a name tent for yourself. See mine for an example.  Please include 3 pictures that represent you. 

          Take your time on your name tent, but if you finish early please sit quietly while you wait. Homeroom is a time to prepare yourself for the day ahead, and is not to be used as a time to goof around.  I have lots of information to give you today, so hold all your questions and I promise I will address each and every one of them.
                                                      Thank you
                                                      Mr. Trumble
