Dear Parents/Guardian,                                          

            I would like to take a moment to introduce myself. My name is Jacqueline Weldon and I am your child’s third grade teacher. I always feel a bit more at ease when I know a little about the person that I will be working with, as most people do. Perhaps I can put you at ease by sharing with you a little about myself, and my philosophy of teaching.

            This is my second decade with Murrieta Valley Unified School District, along with five years teaching at a previous district. This opportunity to work with your child is exciting for me in that I remember my personal experience of being in third grade. I wish to take this personal knowledge and that professional experience to assist in creating a rewarding year. My feeling in regard to teaching is that all children can learn. Perhaps not in the same way or at the same rate as some children, but they all can learn.

            Our job, by working together, is to open the avenues to make learning possible. The goals that I have for your child is to be an effective communicator while experiencing all facets of the curriculum, and to value themselves, as well as others, in order to be a productive citizen.

            The classroom must provide a feeling of belonging and security in order for your child to get the most of their education. Together, we can create that environment. I welcome your comments and concerns.

                                                                                    Thank you,

                                                                                    Mrs.Weldon
