I want you to know it is a pleasure to have your child in my class. First grade is a new and exciting year for each child as part of the elementary.

I realize that teaching your child is a privilege as well as a great responsibility. As a first step to academic success I consider important to create a comfortable and embracing classroom, making your child feel at home and secure. I will do my best to encourage learning through a motivating and dynamic class experience. However, I cannot do this alone. A close communication between home and school is very important. Both you and I need to work as collaborators in the learning process. That is why I have created this blog as an extension of our classroom. Here you will find useful information that corresponds to different topics that we are learning. 

In this blog there are different tabs for each English period, where you will find words called " Amazing Words" that help student develop oral language. Also, we have "Popcorn Words"  that students will learn to read and spell. These words should be practiced at home as well. The letters of the alphabet will be introduced within the first few weeks of school and a different story will be introduced each week.

In English, Science, Math and Social Studies topics, homework assignments and websites I recommend will be posted.  

I am really excited and looking forward to a wonderful year.

Sincerely,
Miss Jocelyn
