Reading is for a Lifetime
English Language Arts:  (condensed from the National PTA Parent Guide to Student Success)

In 6th grade, students apply skills to understand more challenging books and articles. They learn how authors try to influence readers and find reasons to support their ideas. They focus on how authors make their points and support their arguments with evidence and reasoning . Students devote significant attention to precise details in their reading and writing.
