Dear Families,
Welcome! I hope your little one is excited
to be starting school. I am thrilled to
be your child’s teacher this year and can’t wait to get to know you and your
child.
First, let me tell you a bit
about myself. I have been married for four years and have an oversized German
Shepherd named, Duke! I love to read, go camping and go boating. I am also
interested in photography and of course teaching! This is my third year as a Kindergarten
teacher. I have also taught Fourth Grade within the district. I find
Kindergarten to be a special milestone in a child’s life and I look forward to
what this year will bring.
During the year, the curriculum
goals and objectives will be met through the use of themes and hands-on activities
whenever possible. Theme teaching provides me with an opportunity to integrate
topics across the curriculum that directly relate to one another in a
structured environment.
Two main focal points this year
are to develop self-esteem and self disciple in every child. By creating a warm,
loving environment full of positive reinforcements, all children will feel
important and be able to shine!
Throughout the year, I will
communicate to you through notes, newsletters, our classroom blog, telephone
calls, e-mail and conferences. Please check your child’s Communication Folder
every Monday and return it the next day. One of the ways that I like to keep
parents updated about our classroom is through a classroom blog/website. With
your permission, I will post photos of the class working on projects and having
fun! I will update it with valuable
classroom information about every other week. There is also a mobile version so
that you can check it on your phone! I am currently working on our site and
more information will come soon.
Please remember that my job is
to work with you and your child to enhance their learning! I want your child to enjoy school and you to feel
welcome in my classroom! If you ever
have any questions, comments or concerns please contact me! I hope to see you at open house on August 26th
from 6-7 PM!
Sincerely,
Tara Seegert
