WELCOME TO SIXTH GRADE!
Ms. Daddino 6-1 |
Hello, students and parents! Thank you for visiting my home page! This is my fifth year teaching the 6th grade at NMS. I hold a Bachelors degree in Elementary Education and a Masters degree in Reading Education. I look forward to all we have planned this year. Parents,with our coupled support, I am confident that your child will reach their potential and experience success in class this year! Students, remember why you are here (TO LEARN) and do not allow ANYTHING to get in the way of that. Also, please continue to ask questions and hold high expectations for yourself, just as all your teachers do for you here at NMS. Remember that I am available for extra help before and after school on most days.
