ELA - Mr. Pearsall - jpearsall@motthall2.org 6R/6B - Ms. Nam - kkim@motthall2.org We will be working on basic writing skills and personal narratives. Then we will dive into our Notice and Note boot camp. Basic Writing Skills goal sheets are being sent home with your child. A check means that they have met the expectation for the goal. An “N” indicates that the goal has not been met yet. Please review this goal sheet with your child, write your initials in the appropriate boxes, and return these back to school with your child. Students will have an opportunity to retake any quizzes that were marked with an “N”. | |||||||

Welcome to Mott Hall II! We are very excited to have you attend our school. We will be participating in several community service drives this year, so I look forward to all of your participation. Both hurricane Harvey and Irma has been devastating to many families, some more than others. Please note, we will be raising money for some of the families that have lost most of their belongings. Stay tuned for more information. Scholars, if you have an idea about how you would like to help, please come see me! Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns that may occur during the school year. | |||||||
