Your child and I will spend a lot of time together over the next 10 months. We will become readers, writers, explorers, scientists, and mathematicians. We will spend a lot of time getting to know each other, as fostering a feeling of comfort is the foundation we need to continue to grow and risk take. I will have the opportunity to find out their hobbies, interests, strengths and weaknesses inside and outside of the classroom. Please find a little background information about me below.
