Hello and welcome to 6th Grade ELA!
I’m Ms. Bryan, and I’m thrilled to begin my fourth year teaching English Language Arts. I absolutely love helping students grow as readers, writers, and critical thinkers. Sixth grade is such an important year, and I’m honored to be part of your child’s journey.

In our classroom, we’ll explore powerful stories, build strong writing skills, and have meaningful conversations about the world around us. I aim to create a learning environment where every student feels seen, heard, and supported.
