    Dear Students,

    I am so excited to have you in my class this year!  I hope you and your family had a wonderful, relaxing summer.  I cannot wait to hear about the fun things you did when you come back to school.  The best part of my summer was spending time in the Outer Banks with my family.

    We are going to be learning so much this year together all while building and strengthening our classroom and school community.  You will be improving your stamina and fluency skills by reading both fiction and non-fiction stories.  Your handwriting skills will also improve as we explore writing in cursive.  You will become authors as you use your imagination and creativity to create your own pieces of writing using proper spelling and correct grammar.  You will become scientists as we examine weather and climate, the structures of life, and motion and matter.  You will become historians as we study about the past and present of our community.  You will also become mathematicians as you work on your multiplication and division skills. 

    I am looking forward to this school year and all of the learning we will be doing.  I cannot wait to get to know you and your classmates.  We are going to have a great year together!

     

    Sincerely,

    Mr. Grant
