For Parents....

Please click on the "Introduction to Our Classroom" tab to find out more about Edmodo and the Flipped Classroom.

Parent "Assignment":  In a million words or less, tell me about your student. It can be in a narrative, just bullet points, a few sentences, or a novel. You can even write in your native language. This is just for me to understand your child better and to quickly get to know him/her. I will use the information to find ways to engage him in learning in a style of how he learns best. It will be confidential. It doesn't need to be perfect--I'm not grading what you give me. :o) Please turn this in to me as soon as possible- in an envelope, in an email,  on a sticky note, or a link to a website about him. Thank you for doing this! I know your life is busy especially at this time of year. I consider parents to be the child's first and best teacher. I hope to be a partner in providing the best education that is possible.

Welcome to Sixth Grade Social Studies and Science
Miss King's Class

Dear Parents,


   I am so excited to have your son/daughter in my class this year. It is going to be a great year of learning! It is also going to be a year of many changes. There is A LOT of information that you will need to be aware of in order to insure that your son/daughter has the best possible experience in my class. Instead of giving you a large stack of papers to read, I have opted to put the information online. I have set up a blog for the class at www.elkmeadowssocialstudies6th.blogpot.com.
   I'm also asking that each of you fill out a short questionnaire about your son/daughter using a Google form. There will be a link to the form on the blog page. Thank you in advance for taking the time to do this especially because the beginning of the school year is such a busy time. Please stay in contact with me and let me know of ANYTHING that I can do to help your child be successful. I can be reached before and after school at 801-446-3200. My email is sandra.king@jordandistrict.org.
   If you need to visit with me in person, please make an appointment. I am more than happy to talk with you, but an appointment insures that I can make time for you to discuss any of your concerns. 
   I hope the information online is helpful to you. Thank you for taking the time to review the information.

Sincerely,

Ms. Sandy King
