Hello, students and families of 5B!
I am so excited to welcome you to our class for what will be a very special grade 5 year.
It’s going to be a year exploring our creativity, discovering your passion and a gifts, challenging your thinking skills, building connections, deep reflection, and growing in faith in our supportive class community.
My name is Tiffany Poirier, and students call me Ms. Poirier (pronounced “mizz pour-ee-ay”). I am a wife and mother of three boys—two who are attending this school: one is in grade 7, another is in grade 1, and my youngest looks forward to joining our school for kindergarten. I have been a teacher for 17 years, and you can learn more about me by checking out my bio and other tabs on this website.
This first blog post of the year offers a quick introduction; we will have it’s more information to come this week.
I will send you new blog posts and updates about twice a week throughout the year—I love working hard for families by sharing frequent communications including photos, videos, and lesson descriptions so everyone can feel connected to our classroom learning. If you’re curious, you can scroll back to see my previous years’ worth of blog posts. Students and their works are only photographed and featured on my blog with written consent from both parents and the students themselves. I will email you a reminder each time I make a new post, and check this blog frequently for the updates.
Tomorrow will be a lovely morning (8:40am-12:00pm) with a school assembly and then time to settle in, get to know one another, unpack supplies, set some goals, talk about guidelines and our vision for the year, and even start a fun hands-on STEM activity to get the creativity and collaboration going!
I’m looking forward to meeting you!
Sincerely,
Ms. Tiffany Poirier
