Mrs. Taylor's Jungle Times
Newsletter for September 5th
Welcome to First Grade
Hi! My name is Mrs. Taylor, your First Grade Teacher or Jungle Guide. I am so excited that you will be in my class this year! I can’t wait to meet you and start our year together.
I know you are going to love first grade. Our theme this year will be “Wild about Learning.” We will have lots of fun reading and writing stories, solving math problems, celebrating special days, exploring lots of subjects, and working together. This year you will learn and grow so much!
