Dear Parents/Guardians:

 

I am taking this opportunity to introduce myself.  I am your child’s Spanish teacher for the 2007-2008 school year.  I am really looking forward to working with all my students this year.

 

Homework is not just for kids!  In order for me to get to know your child better, I am assigning you some homework.  Please write an introduction letter to me about your child.  There is no minimal/maximum length to your letter, but please write it in your own handwriting as opposed to typing it.  You may want to include any or all of the following information:

 

Ø       Attitude toward school;

Ø       Favorite/least favorite subjects (and why);

Ø       Activities outside of school (sports, religion, etc.);

Ø       Personality characteristics;

Ø       Academic concerns that you may have;

Ø       His/her interests;

Ø       Medical concerns (asthma, bladder problems, allergies, etc.);

Ø       Reason for taking Spanish;

Ø       Anything else that you feel I should know;

 

 

I know that your time is valuable, but no one else knows your child better than you.  This letter will provide me with extremely helpful information and insight as I work with your child this year.  It will be helpful for me to receive your letter as soon as possible, so I would like you to return it by Tuesday, September 11.  This letter will count as your child’s first quiz grade (a very easy grade, I must admit).  Additionally, please include with your letter the signed classroom rules sheet, as that will count as a homework grade.

 

I am looking forward to learning more about your child.  I am sure that you have lots to say!

 

¡Muchas gracias!
