Blog #1



Dear Grade 5 & 6 Ramsay Families,

Welcome to Room #9!  My name is Arlene McGrath, and I am the grade 5/6 teacher at Ramsay School. For returning grade six students and families, I am excited to see you and I am looking forward to catching up and working together again. For new families joining our classroom community, I wish you a warm welcome and I am anxious to get to know you and your child.

We have some very exciting activities, events and field trips planned this year – including our grade 5/6 camp at the end of March. Also, in correlation with our curricular programming, we will be exploring several concepts around our theme text this year What Do You Do with a Chance? by Kobi Yamada.

We are replacing paper agendas this year, therefore our main form of ongoing communication between home and school will be our Ramsay School Rm. 9 blog. Please ensure to check this site daily for important information, in addition to updates on our classroom learning. 

As we start our year together, please remember to send your child with indoor shoes and ensure they are always dressed for the weather (as it changes so quickly in Calgary). Also, we absolutely love the support of parent volunteers both in the classroom and on field trips, so if you are interested in joining us at any time, please contact the office to ensure we have the appropriate paperwork completed and on file.

We are going to have an amazing year together! If at any time you have questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call or email. I look forward to hearing from you.

Regards,
Arlene
