Dear Parents/Guardians,

Welcome to third grade! My name is Miss Elena Skaggs and I will be your child’s teacher this year. Your child will encounter many new things in third grade.  We will work together while learning, using technology and creativity in all areas.  We will explore many different genres as we learn about ourselves as readers and writers.  During the year, we will learn how to contribute to the class community and become more responsible and independent learners.  As your child’s teacher, my main goal is to help every child achieve success in their education and to instill a great passion for life and learning.  I will plan carefully and vary my instructional strategies in order to best challenge and meet the needs of all the students in my class.

An open line of communication between home and school is very important as well.   Please never hesitate to call or email with any questions or concerns you may have about your child’s education.  I believe YOU are the most important person in your child’s life and I look forward to working together with you and your child to create a positive and productive school year.

 

Sincerely,

Miss Skaggs
