1st Semester 6th Grade TAAP Flex class ends Feb. 2

The 1st semester  6th grade TAAP Flex class will continue until February 2 in order for the students to have a final week to present their Constructive Speeches for their debate. This will also make the two semesters of classes more equitable in time allotment as this group did not begin until several weeks into school.

The students have worked to develop constructive speeches for their debate topic in their teams by: choosing an argument to support their side of the argument, researching to find facts and experts to cite in their argument, and develop “stories” to enhance their arguments.

The second semester class will begin on Monday, February 13. They will start with jumping into the Stock Market Game. Most students participated in the SMG last year so they should be able to begin their investing right away. New students will have an opportunity to learn investing skills before beginning their investing.
