Sixth Grade Updates

Students in Ms. Baerenwald’s sixth grade classroom at Pikes Peak Prep learned much during the last month of school.

In math, students learned data anaylsis and probability.  With this information students were able to anaylize graphs.  They finished up the lesson with an experiment to test probabitity and made a colorful graph to show their results.

Students are now able to identify bias in text. They used this when reading to create literature circles, and pick out key points in the text. They finished the school year with imagery and word choice.

Learning much about reading is helping students in their writing. Students learned about fiction stories and with this knowledge wrote short stories and poems.  These were then shared with fellow classmates in our "Poetry Corner."

In social studies, students learned about immigration and economics. During the unit, they learned the difference between investing and saving in economis terms.

Thank you Ms. Baerenwald for a great sixth grade year!
