    Hi, Tessa!
    I don’t know if you’ve heard great things about me or Mrs. Dufendach, but you’ll have both of us teaching you. We are very excited to meet you, too. I was just told by Mr. Alexander that you had a really good year in fourth grade. Hope you have an even better one this year. See you soon, Mrs. Wahr!

    Thanks, Sarah, it is a pleasure to have you in class. By the way, I chose you to receive the “caring” award for this month at school. We are both very proud of the way you work with those who need help understanding. Super!

    Hmm, no date on message. Guess he will have to make up his work tomorrow. It isn’t in the classroom and I have him at the end of the day so he must have taken it from here and put it straight into his locker when getting ready to go home. Thanks for the heads up!
