Hello all! Welcome to my sixth grade class page. My name is Ms. Gioffre and I am proud to be your child's teacher this year. I have a Bachelor's Degree in History, a Masters' Degree in Adolecesent Education, and a Masters' Degree in Early Childhood Education. Teaching is my life, love, and passion, as I seek to help my students achieve their personal and educational goals. I strive to provide a positive classroom enviornment, academic support and challenges, and a social atmosphere that encourages maturity and responsibility.

Sixth grade health curriculum focuses primarily on human development. These lessons explain aspects of  anatomy and physiology, but mostly seek to explain the physical, mental, and emotional growth of the human body. Social-emotional learning is incorporated into all that we learn and do in the classroom. Topics will also cover emotional well-being, coping mechanisms, dealing with stress, deescalation strategies, and bullying.

In light of our "new normal" routines, information and knowledge about COVID-19 safety and prevention will also be touched on throughout the school year.
