MARHABA !
Dear Parents,
Welcome
to the 2015-2016 school year. I am delighted to have your
student in my classroom this year and look forward to sharing the school year
together with him/her. As a teacher, I will endeavor to create an educational
partnership with you and your student that will foster courage, determination,
and passion for knowledge. In addition to this, my commitment as an
educators will be to provide your student with a nurturing and challenging
educational environment that will ensure his/her academic success in Arabic
class.
I am honored to be a member of the American Community School
teaching staff. It is my pleasure to return to ACS this year. For those of you
that are new to ACS this year I look forward to meeting you and your
daughter/son, and for those who already know me I am also looking forward to
seeing you again.
My name is Wafa Ramahi, I am an Elementary Arabic teacher, and I
have a Masters in Curriculum and Teaching Methods and have been teaching Arabic
at ACS for ten years. I am happy to return for another great year.
I believe that by all of us working together we can make this a
very successful year. I consider it of prime importance that you be an active
part of your child's education. You are invited to visit the school any time
that you have a question concerning your child's progress.
Since
the curriculum is very diverse and challenging, homework will be an important
reinforcement tool to help students achieve mastery with the
standards. Homework will be assigned to your son/daughter every
evening, Monday through Thursday. It will reinforce concepts already
discussed in class and always be a natural extension of their class coursework. Many
homework assignments will require your student to study at
home. When studying at home, students should have a quiet,
distraction-free environment. Throughout the school year, your
son/daughter will also be responsible for various assignments that may require
a commitment of time on his/her weekend to complete, however, these occasions
will be limited and you will be given advanced notice of when they will be
assigned and when they will be due to the classroom.
Education is a partnership between the student, teacher, and parent(s).
Success in the classroom and for the teacher can’t occur without the student. I
look forward to build the partnership with your child. You on the other hand
have raised your child and understand her/him in a way I never will, so if
there is anything you would like me to know about your child, now or in the
future, I hope you will never hesitate to contact me by note, phone, or e-mail.
Thank you for allowing ACS and I the opportunity to teach your child.
I consider it a great privilege and responsibility to be your
child's teacher this year, and look forward to meeting each of you.
Sincerely,
Arabic
Teacher
Courage, Determination, and Passion for Knowledge
