Dear Students and Parents,
Welcome back everyone to the 2020-2021 school year! My name is Mrs. Adler, and I will be your 6th grade Humanities (Literacy and Social Studies) teacher. I hope that you had a fun, safe and relaxing summer vacation and spent time with family and friends. I would like to share a little bit about me with you. This will be my 30th year teaching at Norwood Park School. I enjoy traveling, movies, baking, calligraphy and tutoring in my spare time. I am married and have 2 stepsons and 2 kitties. This summer I spent a lot of time outdoors hiking and taking long walks. I look forward to hearing and learning about you as well. The Humanities course goal is for students to master the 6th Grade Common Core English Language Arts standards using a historical lens to understand people, cultures, and events from the past and the present. Students develop the stamina and strategies needed for independent comprehension and deep reading of complex narrative and informational texts. Students also develop mastery in select 6th Grade Common Core Social Studies standards to further support their speaking/listening, reading, writing, and thinking skills. Additional focus on language and academic vocabulary also help students build these skills. Students demonstrate their knowledge through assessment, research, writing and digital presentations. I am anticipating an enjoyable and exciting educational experience this school year. I look forward to meeting you all. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me at bmadler@cps.edu. See you on September 8th. Sincerely, Mrs. Adler |
