Welcome to Sixth Grade Latin and History

By Kandice Kimmel, Latin & History 5th-8th

We hit the ground running in sixth grade! In Latin we reviewed the present and imperfect tense of sum. Studying Latin with its highly organized grammar, makes us coordinate ideas, reflect on various ways to say the same thing, and thus helps us to write and speak better English!

In History we are studying ancient civilizations and the students created their own cave art! Cave paintings may have been central in the development of symbolic thinking and the emergence of language. They provide valuable insights into the lives, beliefs, and artistic capabilities of our ancient ancestors.
