ELA Extra Credit Competition We already have 5 amazing submissions - I am so impressed!
April is POETRY MONTH – and we will be starting our poetry unit next week. To start us off, Ms. Streibel is hosting a poetry competition & we were invited to participate!
What do I have to do?
Write an original poem – it can be on any topic, in any form. This is your chance to be creative! This means it comes from you - not the internet.
How do I submit it?
E-Mail the poem to Ms. Pallas (cpallas@schools.nyc.gov) by April 17 (Friday). If possible, please type the poem (I have to email it for the competition & I want to make sure I send it how you want it!)
What do I get for this?
In addition to the chance of WINNING for the 6th grade, anyone who enters an original poem will get extra credit for Ms. Pallas.

Mindfulness with Ms. Adams
Mindfulness: The New Normal
Part of dealing with stress and anxiety is the ability to recognize stress and implement strategies to deal with it before it becomes an overwhelming problem. On top of all that, life has drastically changed and is feeling pressure to stay inside and practice social distancing from extended family, friends, and the outside world.
Simple Stress Coping Strategies
Obtain Social Support. Prioritize exercise Express gratitude
Develop a positive Self-talk habit Make time for leisure activities
Eat a balanced diet Meditate When you feel it, write it
Laugh Learn to avoid procrastination. Listen to music Deep breathing
Reflection: Which of these coping strategies would you be willing to try and why?
The Bottom Line:
There are many simple ways to prevent or reduce stress. Learn to manage it.
