Welcome to a new year!August 21, 2017 Dear Parent and/or Guardian, Welcome to a new and exciting year at Horizon Science Academy – Belmont! My name is Ms. Ellis and I will be your child’s First Grade Teacher. Ms. Lee will be serving as a Teacher’s Assistant for our class. Our classroom will be a fun and safe learning environment filled with a rigorous curriculum to meet the needs of every child. Your child will have fun learning new concepts for all subjects. I am looking forward to working with you to provide a highly effective education for your child. This is my third year at Horizon Science Academy- Belmont. I have over ten years of teaching experience in Chicago. I am dedicated to the success of every student enrolled in my class. Students will receive instruction in Math, Reading, Science, Social Studies, Writing, Art, Technology and Physical Education. Students will receive weekly assessments and daily homework. Students in grades K-2 use a numerical grading scale ranging from 0-4 with 4 being the highest. In order to ensure consistent learning with minimum distractions, classroom rules must be present. We will review rules with students and students will practice classroom procedures for the first two weeks of school. The classroom rules are below:
Sincerely, Ms. Ellis and Ms. Lee |
