Welcome to our class blog!

Hi parents, guardians and students!

Welcome to our class blog!  We've had a great start to our school year and I'm excited about the learning we're going to do this year.  To help keep everyone informed, I will be keeping this blog to let parents and guardians know what's going on in our classroom.  Each week, you will find the topics being covered in our classes, in addition to that week's Spelling words.  I also hope to have "reporters" who will write about the events and activities happening in our class.

I believe that parent involvement and open communication are key to helping students reach their best potential.  My hope is that this blog will be one of several channels of communication between families and myself.  If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to jot a note in the student agenda or give me a call (the school phone number is found on the 1st page of the student agenda).

It has been a pleasure meeting each of your children, and I hope to get chance to meet all the parents/guardians soon too!

Cheers,
Mrs. Kwong
