RAFT Assignment

Students created their own homework assignment using R (Role), A (Audience), F (Format), and(Topic) as related to the novel The Lightning Thief.  Livia L chose Clarisse, the camp bully, for her role, Percy Jackson for her audience and a rap for her format.  Listen to her topic!

Inner-Outer Circle Discussion - Sixth Grade

6-K and 6-PT doing a fabulous job discussing the novel Number the Stars.  They created their own higher level questions which they posed for discussion.  I think the students learned how important it is to listen as well as to voice their opinions.

Pictionary Time Again!





About Me

I am so happy to be a part of All Saints Catholic School again! I was born and raised in Surrey, England and started my teaching career there. Interestingly, my high school was called St. Anne's College! My husband and I emigrated in 1981 and became United States citizens in 1994. Our two daughters both attended All Saints and Bishop Kelley, and I was active in the All Saints P.T.O and served on the school board during that time. I taught English Language Arts, mainly at the pre-AP level, at Sequoyah and Childers middle schools from 2001-2014. My first love has always been literature, so I am delighted to be sharing that love with your children this year!
