Mississippi 6th Grade ELA Curriculum

6th Grade ELA in Mississippi

Mississippi 6th grade ELA follows the MS College Career Ready Standards, which cover reading literature, reading informational texts, writing, speaking and listening, and language conventions. These skills form the foundation students need for middle school and beyond.

Reading and Writing Skills at Grade 6

In 6th grade, Mississippi students move from learning to read to reading to learn. They analyze how authors structure arguments, compare themes across texts, and write their own evidence-based essays. Grammar and vocabulary skills become more precise at this level.

• Reading literature: theme, character development, point of view
• Reading informational text: central idea, evidence, author's purpose
• Writing: argument, informative, and narrative writing
• Language: grammar conventions, word choice, vocabulary in context
