Our class has really enjoyed reading some interesting articles this week. They’ve read about blood-sucking fish, invasive species, and the first civilian crew to ever go to space. Their StoryWorks magazines have made them interested in what is currently happening in the world and we love to encourage that kind of curiosity in E6. In order to foster that yearning for knowledge, we have introduced our very own E6 newspaper. In this newspaper, each student will work with a partner to write an article where they have to do research and learn something new. Here is a sneak peek of what the newspaper will entail!
Study Tips
By: Miya and Lilah
Today we are going to be giving you some great study tips.
This is our first tip, we suggest that whenever you get frustrated
with any school work or other stuff to take three deep breaths and take a break! For our second tip, we suggest that if you don’t know a question or a math problem, be confident in yourself and don’t give up. Keep trying! For our third tip, if you get mad and want to give up do not cheat or look at someone’s paper. Ask a friend or a teacher for help! For our forth tip, if you are very competitive then we suggest that you cover your paper and tell the other person to do the same
thing so you do not see their paper and are not tempted. For our fifth tip, we think that if you are mad, you are most likely hangry. Here are a few great snacks for you: Made Good bars, Goldfish, bananas, and apples. These are some great snacks for studying. For our last tip, we suggest that you just keep trying and never give up.
Here are a few math problems to challenge yourself.

For the fifth years:

Book Report
By Amber and Emma
Looking for a good read? Well you’ve come to the right place! Here’s our top book
choice: Artemis Fowl
Why should you read the Artemis Fowl series? Well, the series is about a boy named Artemis Fowl II, a 12 year old genius criminal mastermind. He’s part of a family of criminal billionaires.. That is, until his dad dies taking with him lots of the family fortune. The Fowls are still quite rich, but the billionaire title is no longer theirs. Therefore, Artemis begins his quest to restore the family fortune.
In the first book Artemis Fowl decides to try and get gold from the fairies… Make no mistake though, these aren’t the fairies of bedtime stories. They’re armed and dangerous. Artemis kidnaps one of them, Captain Holly Short, an elf and a captain of the lower elements police reconnaissance force [leprecon] [see what they did there] yet even he doesn’t know what he’s got himself into…
If you didn’t know there’s also a movie on Disney+!
Artemis Fowl is by Eoin Colfer, New York Times best-selling #1 author who has written many books about Artemis Fowl and other stories.
