Looking  Ahead:  9/11/13  –  6th  Grade  Picture  Day

9/25/13  –  Back  to  School  Night  

Welcome!!  I   would   like   to   welcome   everyone   to   Hammarskjold   Middle  School.  This  is  an  exciting  transition  in  all  of  your  lives.  We  hope  we  can  make  these  two  years  as  easy  as  possible.    Sixth  Grade  is  an   exciting   year   for   your   aspiring   young   minds.   Not   only   will  they  learn  a  lot  in  school,  but   they  will  learn  a   lot  out  of  school.  As  a  grade,  we  take  many  field  trips  to  enhance  the  learning  that  happens   in   the   classroom.   Our   first   trip   is   right   around   the  corner.    

The  first   few  days   for  your  new  sixth  grader  may  be  rough,  but  don’t  worry…they  will  learn  and  have  a  blast  doing  it.  If  there  are  any  questions  or  concerns,  please  don’t  hesitate   to  call  or  email  me.  I’m  sure,  together;  we  can  make  amazing  things  happen  this  year.    

How  to  Help:  

The  month  of  September  is  a  fairly  easy  month.  Once  all  the  introductions  are  over  and  the  kids  figure  out  how  to  open  those  pesky  lockers,  we  really  get  into  the  learning.  We  will  begin  to  look  at  historians  and  the  tools  they  use  to  uncover  the  past.  This  year  will  be  an  exciting  adventure  into  the  ancient  cultures  of  the  world.  

If  you  have  any  questions,  comments  or  concerns,  please  feel  free  to  email
