Welcome to 6 th grade Science Mrs. Cerutti Please ask questions!

What you, the parent, can do! 1. Check Homework: sheets, reading pages from the book, reviewing what is in notebook, studying for assessments 2. Check composition science notebook and talk about what was discussed each day. Ask your child to quiz you! Check the table of contents and information on the corresponding pages. 3. Check homework hotline or team website often with and without your child’s presence. 4. Help them be successful during this transition time. They still need your guidance. 5. Develop a workable system so everyone knows the homework.
