Welcome! My name is Mrs. Forbes. I have been teaching at Calvin Coolidge for 31 years. This year I am teaching 6th grade English/Language Arts and have each class for a 80 minute block. I am co-teaching some of my classes with Mr. Lewis, as well as focusing on Common Core Standards and student data to drive my instruction. I am also implementing literacy lessons throughout my ELA block, so students are experiencing and learning to read, writing, speaking, and listening in many different ways. We also have Individual Learning Time this year - during this time I will help your child with individual reading goals, and students will work on the reading programs IXL and Lexia at their own levels! I am so excited to see their growth.
Communication is critical! Thank you for visiting my website! You will find all kinds of information about our classroom.. homework, upcoming events, tests, quizzes, notes, and celebrations. Please contact me if you have any questions. Thanks so much! -- Mrs. Forbes
