Salaam everyone,
This blog is titled, "Second Thoughts." It coincides with the weekly newsletter that I will send home every Friday in the Friday Folder. I will try to update on here as much as I can, but please always check the regular newsletter for more up to date information.
As we begin the new school year, please make sure to read everything I send home ... :) There are a lot of routines and procedures to get used to in my class, so it is important to convey everything and to make sure all the parents understand. The class newsletter tells what we did in each subject during the week. On the back are important messages and reminders. Keeping up with the class announcements and reminders will help make everything run smoother and avoid confusion regarding assignments or other information.
I am a big proponent of a lot of parent-teacher communication. I want you all to be aware of what is happening in the class and with your child. I expect a lot from my students because I know what they can be capable of. But I also expect a lot of my class parents to help their child and to know what is expected in my class, and keep up with the guidelines. I look forward to getting to know all of you as the year progresses. We have a large class this year, as the two first grades from last year are combined into one second grade. With a large class size, I will need a lot of support from you all to make sure your child is doing what is expected of him/her.
Jazak Allah! :)
