6th Grade Supply List

      Hello, sixth grade families! I know the supplies have hit the store shelves already, so here you go. 🙂

• King James Bible
• No. 2 pencils
• 1 highlighter
• Pencil pouch, preferably a soft-sided one that won't take up too much room in the desk.
• Clear ruler with inches and centimeters 
• 2 boxes of tissues for class supply
• 1 container of disinfectant wipes for class supply 
• headphones or wired earbuds for iPad use
• pack of loose leaf paper, wide ruled
• 1 two-inch wide 3-ring binder
• 5 folders with the ring holes (for the binder)

      ⭐The binder and this blog will be two vital ways that you can stay informed. 

      Students are encouraged to have one personal water bottle, too. 

     ⭐Please have you child limit any extras, simply because space is limited.  

      Tissues and disinfectant wipes may be brought to Open House, if you want to. That's August 18, from 5:30-7:30. 

      I'm so excited to work with your children! If you have any questions, email me at jbrammer@nlca.info or call the school office, leave a message, and I will get back with you.

Who is Mrs. Brammer?

       Hello, NLCA families!

      I thought my new families might want to know a little background information about me.

       I moved to Canvas, West Virginia in 2018 from Ohio.  I was raised in a small town near Steubenville, Ohio, but I earned my teaching degree from West Liberty State College (now West Liberty University) in West Virginia's northern panhandle in 1990.

       My work experience has almost always been with children. My first permanent teaching position was in third grade at Jefferson County Christian School (in Ohio) in 1994. I have also subbed in both public and private schools, been a school librarian, and most recently, collected data for a state-funded study on the effect of universal preschool in West Virginia. That last one was very valuable to me because I visited over twenty different second and third grade classes in the state!  That allowed me to glean all kinds of information about how I could better teach.

      Also, New Life Christian Academy is the fourth Christian school that I have worked for, so I try to use all that experience to help children like yours learn and thrive.

      I taught third grade here from fall of 2021 to spring of 2024.  Now, I have the blessing of returning to some of the same students I had in 2024! 

       This blog is where I'll be posting any upcoming quizzes, tests, or important events to remember.  I use it at least weekly, so please check back often!
