Webster's Dictionary defines annotation as " A remark, note or commentary on some passage of a book, intended to illustrate its meaning." Students in Mrs. Ikner's 6th grade ELA classes are learning how to annotate as they read in order to build understanding and use that understanding to write about what they have read. #4Cs

Students who visited the CMS media center today got a little surprise. Mrs. Durrence, CMS media specialist, showed them the new "Mystery" section. Each book was wrapped up like a gift, and the students had the choice of a mystery book or any other book of their choice. Most students liked the element of surprise, and checked out the wrapped book. They weren't allowed to open them until they left the media center. The whole idea is to teach students that all books are a gift with a special story, and we can't always judge them by their cover.

CMS would like to congratulate our Young Georgia Author grade level winners. We are very proud of your accomplishment!
