Welcome to Mrs. Connor-Miller's

6th Grade Advanced Geography Class

First Nine Weeks

Dear Parents and Students:

Welcome to my 6th Grade World Geography Class.  This site was created as a courtesy for you and your child.  It is designed to keep both of you abreast of the weekly homework assignments. In addition to the weekly homework assignments, I will attach necessary files for your use, and provide useful links to help enrich the learning experience of my students.

It is my hope  that your journey around the world will prove to be rich and rewarding as you discover and explore new and exciting places and regions in our magnificent world.

Wishing you a wonderful school year!

Mrs. Connor-Miller
