Welcome to 5th Grade!
Greetings 5th
Grade Families,
I
am so excited to have you in my class for the 2016-2017 school year. I have the most amazing year planned for
us. I have been working hard to get the
classroom just right for the first day of school. I can’t wait to see your smiling face as you
start your 5th grade year!! I
will do my very best to make your year safe, comfortable, enjoyable and of
course full of learning! Learning can be
lots of fun for both teacher and student, but hard work will be
required. We’ll achieve our goals if we put our hearts and minds to it!
This
year it is important to follow the supply list carefully. We will be using our lockers to hold many of
your supplies. The lockers are
small. Below, you will find a list of
things you may want to bring and things that you may NOT bring to school.
Please try to reuse as many things from last year as possible!
