Welcome to our first and second grade combo class! I am looking forward to being your child's teacher this year. First and second grades are filled with fun and huge leaps of learning. Students develop fundamental work habits, appropriate social behavior, problem-solving and decision-making skills, and of course academic skills. They will become accomplished readers and writers. You will see changes in your child's thinking as he/she becomes familiar with abstract concepts and symbols. The transformation will be dramatic! I'm looking forward to a great year.
