Dear
Parent/Guardians and Students,
Welcome to my class! My
name is
Mrs. Melissa Green, and I am excited to be your history teacher. I am
writing
this letter to introduce myself to you and your family, and to let you
know
some of what you can expect from me as a teacher and from this class
during the
upcoming school year.
I am
originally from Maine
and
graduated from the University
of Southern Maine with a
bachelor’s degree in Political
Science. I have nearly completed my Master’s degree in Education.
I decided to
become a Social Studies teacher because it is a fascinating subject and
it is
my goal
that you will find it interesting as well! It is my hope that we will
have a
productive and educational school year.
It is very important to me that students are
given the opportunity to have input into what they learn, to take safe
risks,
and to be responsible for their education. In my classroom, you will
find a
place where personal responsibility, risk, and community are highly
valued. I
have high expectations of the behavior and effort of my students.
Likewise, I
expect my students to have high expectations of me.
Please
contact me at any time during the school year with questions or
concerns. Thank you and I hope you are
looking forward to a great year!
