In sixth grade social studies we will focus on geography, history, and cultures of the world from the beginnings of history.

Grades are EARNED through quizzes, tests, projects, and daily preparedness.  Please check your PowerSchool account regularly and actively monitor your progress in class.

There will be three categories of grades:  Summative Grades, Formative Grades, and Individual Practice.  Your final Summative Average will be weighted 50% of your total marking period grade, your Formative Average will be weighted 40% of your total marking period grade, and your Individual Practice will be weighted 10% of your total marking period grade.  This is based on the Hamilton Township BOE 2015-2016 Grading Policy.

A note about Mrs. Crivelli:  I love to read!   I love to walk my dogs  and feed my favorite neighbors.
