Conference time: 6th Period My name's Mike McMannes and I teach 6th grade Reading. A little about your child's teacher? Well....
I love to write, travel, listen to music, and READ. I learned to read at a very early age and can still remember the effective techniques that teachers used with me. In turn, I use some of those same methods - visualization, writing the words, phonics, as well as using my own stories to inspire the love of reading. Cliffhangers FORCE reading and they are used in my class quite often. (BUM-BUM-BUMMMmmmmmm....)
My views on life are this: treat others how you would like to be treated. In my class, we let the ladies leave first, put their folders up first and walk down the rows first. We act like gentleman, we don't use bad language, we say yes or yes-sir, and we respect others. Most of the kids are doing well with this and like the responsibility of being a kind and honorable person.
These things are very important and they are taught in my classroom in conjunction with how to become a better reader. The kids and I have a great relationship and they're very aware of
my love for Star Trek...and they know they can get extra-credit for anything Star Trek related! :) I look forward to hearing from you and meeting you in the future.
