Welcome to 6th Grade ELA

Hello!! My name is Ms. Yokum and I'm so excited to be your teacher this year! This is going to be a great new school year-- we're going to have a lot of fun! Whether you're excited or apprehensive about ELA, we'll take on the challenges together. This year we are going to dive into some novels, poems, and short stories. We will even create some of these of our own! We'll refine our grammar and reading skills all while building a nurturing environment.
 
My goal is to create an environment where the students feel comfortable as individuals express themselves and are empowered to push themselves, make mistakes, and learn from those mistakes. I firmly believe learning and growth do not happen without mistakes, failures, and setbacks. 
 
If you have any questions throughout the school year, please do not hesitate to reach out to me via email - [email protected]
 
I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you! Let's have a great year!
