The beginning of the year was a bit confusing with the Grade 5 classes being reorganized, but we are all settled in now.
We spent a while getting to know each other by listening to Me Bag presentations and Name Art presentations. We've played games and had discussions so that we feel like a classroom community. I think we are all feeling comfortable with each other, and we have a very lovely class.
On Tuesday, we welcome a Queen's Teacher Candidate to our class for 3 weeks. Her name is Ms. Glebe, and she will be learning what it's like to teach a Grade 5 class. She will teach large group lessons, work with small groups, and may work one-on-one with students. It will be so nice to have her here.
You will hear soon about Curriculum afternoons. This is an opportunity to come into the classroom, meet the teacher, hear about our routines and curriculum, and get your child to show you around. Remember, this is not a parent-teacher interview. Those will come in November, and if I have concerns about your child, I will contact you before then.
We've had a great start! I hope the year continues like that!
Sincerely,
Ms. Bordonaro
