My name is Mrs. Iavarone and I will be your child’s teacher this year. I want to begin by agreeing with you that my last name is a bit of a mouth full, so let’s say it together...
“Eye-va-rone!”
Yes, it is Italian, and though I use my hands a lot to talk, I am not Italian, but I do love a piece of overly cheesy lasagna and would eat it everyday if I could, with a side of Hot Cheetos "naturally" and a vanilla latte!
I am pleased to see that your child’s education is important to you and feel lucky to have the opportunity to be their teacher this year. I look forward to a great start with your child, and with your support, it will continue to be a great school year, guaranteed!
Please do remember, you are your child’s first teacher. I believe all children can and want to learn. You, as a parent, are the most important person in your child’s life and should be! Your support, encouragement, and attention can make all the difference in the world! So together, as a team, we can provide your child the education and necessary skills one needs to be a contributing member of our society.
Second grade is an exciting time filled with new experiences and challenges, a time where being an actively involved parent in your child’s learning will be of the up most benefit. I also believe that every child can learn the concepts we will be teaching. So it is extremely important that all students know the importance, and also practice appropriate behavior, so that I may be able to teach effectively, giving every student an equal opportunity to learn. Fostering a positive classroom environment, which encourages students to be responsible and respectful of one another, is beneficial for everyone!
Make every moment this year and years after a learning moment as we do here in the classroom, whenever possible: at the grocery store, when you are cooking, even doing yard work. I am looking forward to a positive and successful year, and again I thank you in advance for the opportunity to work with you and your child.
Welcome to Second Grade!
Can’t wait to make it a “Magical!"
