Welcome Letter



Welcome to Mrs. Chang's classroom!  I am excited to be your child’s fifth grade teacher. I am looking forward to working with you and your child in Chinese Immersion program, which would require your child to speak only Chinese in class, working with other kids in small groups, completing homework and participating in class assignment and activities. I expect them to show their respect, responsibility, and cooperation at school.
Mr. Horan will be teaching your child English reading, writing, mathematics and reinforcing science concepts which learned in Chinese. I will be teaching your child Chinese reading, writing, and teaching science and reinforcing mathematics in Chinese. We will be working very closely together, but your support at home is also very important in your child's success in this program. Some important information to start off the year:

Homework:
A homework packet will be given at the start of each week. It will be due every Friday. The homework could be writing, practicing Chinese words, reading Chinese/Science articles under my class website. 
I will grade their homework every week. Since homework is a very big percentage of their grades, I encourage parents to encourage and assist their children in completing their weekly homework and not forget to turn it in. If they do so, they will be qualified to attend the 5th grade “Activity of The Month.”
 Most of the homework will be online, please let me know if it is a problem to access the school website. Parental supervision is strongly encouraged. 

Classroom Rules:
In the beginning of the year, your child will be given a number. This number will associate with his/her backpack rack and other activities. Students who behave well can get chances to earn rewards such as: treats, more time for recess, and sit with their buddies, etc. Those who don't behavior well will have less time for recess, emails will be sent to parents, or go to the office.

Our class rules are:
  1. Speak Chinese all the time!
  2. Pay attention and listen to Mrs. Chang in class.
  3. Complete the assignment and homework.
  4. Raise a hand when talk or leave the desk.
  5. Be kind and be respectful to others.
  6. Be clean and in order. 
  7. Be responsible.
  8. Be safe.

Please feel free to participate in your child’s fifth grade year as much as you are able. Helping hands are always needed. Whether it is doing classroom activities, helping with field trips, or any other participation will enrich our classroom experiences.

I am looking forward to a wonderful and exciting year with you and your child! Feel free to contact me anytime via email when you have any questions or concerns. 

Sincerely,

Mrs. Chang
Fifth Grade
Chinese Immersion Teacher
