Letter home with Progress Report 1

Dear Parents and Guardians,

This is Mr. Grove, and I just wanted to write a short note to accompany your child’s progress report. We have had a great start, and I look forward to the upcoming school year. In my Social Studies class we have been focusing on learning about the World’s geography. We have been learning where different countries in the World are located and how to find them using their coordinates of Latitude and Longitude. If possible, please allow your child to install Google Earth on the home computer. You and your child can use this program to take virtual 3D tours of many important locations around the world.

Usually we do not have daily homework in the class. However, if a student does NOT finish the class assignment, it will become their homework. We do have one weekly assignment. A current events assignment is due each Friday. We have discussed in class the expectations for this assignment, and the students have already turned one in.

On the Progress Report, if a grade is shown as a 59, it was NOT turned in to me by your child. If a grade is shown as a 60, the actual grade scored by your child was BELOW a 60. If you have any questions or comments feel free to contact me. Thanks for your time, and I look forward to an excellent year working with your son/daughter.

Thanks again,
Mr. Grove
