Welcome!
Dear Parents,
My name is Sheryl MacLeod and I will be teaching 2B this year. I am from Canada
and have been living and teaching in Taiwan for 11 years. My family in Taiwan
includes a daughter age 6, and a son age 4.
I believe that the classroom has to be a place where everyone is comfortable and
willing to learn. I want your children to love coming to school. This year will be an
opportunity for the children and I to learn and grow together. We are going to enjoy
new challenges and I hope you will be an active participant.
We will start promptly at 8:10. To help ensure that your child is ready to enjoy their
day please make sure they have completed their breakfast and are at school by
8am ready to start. Please help them to bring a healthy snack to eat during the day.
We will be assigning a daily reading assignment. Each student will be required to
read for 15 minutes, complete his or her reading journal, and get a parent's signature
in their journal signifying they have completed the work. They will also be expected
to complete any work that was not completed during class time during the day.
To help your child become more familiar with the class and each other please
have your child bring something to school on Wednesday, September 1st that
they can share with the class. For example, a favorite book, toy, or picture.
If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to send me an email at
smacleod.ibsh@gmail.com. I will be starting a blog to keep you up to date on
what we are learning in the classroom, the address is www.sherylmacleod.com.
I am looking forward to meeting you all at our PTA Parent-Teacher day on
September 25th.
Lastly, I would appreciate a short email letting me know that you have received this
letter. In your email, please include the following information:
- Your child's name
- Your child's birthday
- Both parents' names
- Both parents' occupations
- Emergency contact person and phone number
Thank you,
Mrs. MacLeod
