Class Overview
Classroom Expectations (And a few helpful links!)
Welcome to Mr. Nunemaker's 6th Grade Class!
My goal is to have each and every student feel comfortable and safe. I want you all to enjoy your time in my classroom. Every day I want you to learn something new, something fun, and something you can take with you for the rest of your lives.
Now that you know what to expect when you come to class, I am going to fill you in with a few basics of what I expect from you. I want each of you to come to class prepared to learn. "Failing to prepare, is preparing to fail". -- John Wooden -- What that means for us, is that I want each one of you to come to school with the proper materials. To see what I want you to bring click on the proper link below
Secondly, I want each of you to know some other important information. If you click on the link at the bottom of the page, you will find out what time you need to be at school by, what time you get to leave at and maybe most importantly when lunch is!
Other expectations will be given to you at school on your first day. I look forward to meeting each and every one of you. Remember, be ready to learn, have fun, and remember something you can take with you the rest of your lives!
