Welcome to my classroom! I am looking forward to teaching your child and anticipating a successful year. Expectations are high for the students this year, and their responsibilities will increase. Students must be organized; complete a more difficult & extensive curriculum and workload; use time management skills to get assignments done; and work to solve problems on their own. At the same time, they will also participate in creative learning activities and demonstrate what they know in imaginative ways.

Parent Support 

I look forward to working with you toward the goal of providing the best educational experience for your child. At home, one good way to review the day’s lessons is to ask your child to tell you about what he or she did in class. Please encourage your child to read, read, read and then tell you about what they read. Reading any written material will help students with fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension. I recommend 30 minutes of reading a day to students. In addition, reinforcing organization and time management skills goes a long way toward achieving the best educational experience possible.

I believe communication is important between a teacher and parents. Please, feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns, you can reach me at school via telephone or via e-mail @ samantha_franklin@ecboe.org. 

Also, please sign up for Remind and be able to send and receive text messages to me directly. I might not be able to respond immediately due to teaching hours, but I will respond ASAP between the hours of 7:30 am and 3:30 pm. If it is after the hours of 3:30 pm, I will respond the next school day. 

Always REMEMBER...

WELCOME TO FIFTH GRADE!!!!!
