Dear Parents and Students,
Welcome to Fifth Grade at HIS! My name is Mr. Robus and
I am really excited to be
teaching the Grade 5 class this year.
As many of you know, I
taught the Grade 2 class last year. I am excited to be teaching a higher grade level
this year and look forward to getting to know the Grade 5 students better,
having met most of them last year. I would like to assure all students and
parents right from the start that the most important thing to remember about
education is that although we don’t all learn in the same way, everybody has
the capacity to enjoy learning. With
this in mind, I encourage students to talk to me if they have any concerns
about what we are learning or what happens in the classroom. I am aware that
some students are shy or unwilling to discuss their fears or concerns about
matters of an academic and social nature, but I will explain how to overcome
this issue when I meet with the class for the first time on Thursday. I am sure
that if we work together, this will be a very successful year for all of us.
In order to make collaboration
as
effective
as
possible, I hope
that we can communicate about any questions or concerns you might have both
now, and as the
school year progresses. Please remember to contact me first if you
have a query or
would like to express a concern. You can write a note
in your child’s Homework
Book or email me at donovan.robus@hdis.hc.edu.tw.
I will use
the class blog to communicate messages and
important reminders,
along with
daily homework assignments, so
please check it daily.
In addition to communicating via
the blog, I may
occasionally send a memo home in
your child’s Homework Book.
Please be
sure to keep up with what your child is learning by asking
them questions about what
they did at school. If we all work together, we will
all learn together.
I look forward to meeting the parents of
my students either at our Introductory Evening next month or at our
Parent-Teacher Conferences later in the year.
Until then, please feel free to contact me if
you have any concerns.
Kind regards,
Mr. Robus (Grade 5 Teacher)
