6th Grade Survival Kit


Welcome to 6th Grade! It is an exciting time and maybe a little scary – even for the teacher! I put together this “Survival Kit” to help you get ready for this year. Each item has a unique and special meaning. I look forward to getting to know you. We have lots to learn and do together this school year!


• The SPONGE is to remind you to soak up knowledge.
• The PENCIL is to remind you to “write your wrongs”.
• The ERASER is to remind you that we all make mistakes, and that it’s okay.
• The piece of STRING is to remind you to help you tie up loose ends.
• The COTTON BALL is to remind you that our classroom is full of
kind words and warm feelings.
• The STAR is to remind you to shine and always try your best.
• The CHOCOLATE KISSES is to comfort you when you are feeling sad.
• The piece of GUM is to remind you that your class can stick together as a team.
• The TOOTH PICK is to remind you to “pick out” the good qualities in your classmates.
• The BANDAGE is to heal hurt feelings in your friends and in yourself.
• The POSTCARD is to remind you there are thousands of places to visit and discover.
• The KEY CHAIN (courtesy of Ms. Andrea Ozawa) is to remind you there are generous and loving people around you.
