Ms. Deats Moves to 6th Grade!

This is a long overdue announcement, as I have been teaching 6th grade since August :). 
And, boy, have my 6th grade Language Arts students taught me a lot this year!

A note to my spectacular students:   Come close to the screen.  Closer.  Yes, now listen up, any funny business on this site will result in immediate high level consequences.  Got it?  Good!

Be your best selves and support each other in ways you would appreciate.  You guys are the best!!
