It is my pleasure to be teaching your children this year. The students are off to a great start. They have made a smooth transition to first grade.I would like to highlight some of the activities taking place in the class. Our Phonics and Reading programs is a comprehensive program that incorporates phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary and comprehension. The children have been writing in their personal journals. I try to encourage the children to express themselves freely when writing in their journals.In math, we will be working on numbers and numeration, patterns, and problem solving. Math manipulatives, hands-on activities, and games are continually being integrated throughout the curriculum. Thank you for your continued support and cooperation. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to drop me a line. My door is always open to you. I look forward to a very rewarding and productive school year.Sincerely,Miss Kirk
