FIFTH GRADE ROCKS!     Welcome to our 5th grade class! I am please to take this opportunity to introduce myself to you. This is my second year teaching at Jefferson Elementary, however I have taught 5th grade for a total of eight years. I am originally from Dickinson Center and graduated from SUNY Potsdam where I received my Bachelor's degree in Childhood Education and my Master's degree in the Literacy Specialist program. I believe that a good learning experience is built on a cooperative effort among parent, child, and teacher. I look forward to the work and growth we will accomplish this year. My expectations for conduct and academic standards are high. With your participation both in and out of the classroom, we can look forward to a productive, creative, and enjoyable year together.   Please check this website frequently to check homework, log into web-based programs, gain information about our curriculum, navigate educational websites, and view "snapshots" of our learning!     If you have any questions or concerns at any time please email me at [email protected].   Thank you, Miss Chapman :)
