A Letter to the Parents of My Geography Students 





September 14, 2001


The school year has gotten off to a wonderful start.  Your children are great to work with.  They are enthusiastic and seem genuinely interested in geography.  So far they are also very well behaved.  Thank you for sending me such great kids!  For a preview of what we will be studying this year, please see the course outline.

By now you know that all my students are involved in a yearlong research project on a country of their choice.  This week we are writing letters to the embassy of each country and will eagerly await their response.

Students will also receive their first Project assignment soon.  Most of the projects they may choose from are related to the countries they are researching. 

If you have any questions at anytime this year, fill free to contact me at school or email me.  Parent conference night is Thursday Oct.  11th.  You may schedule a conference by calling the guidance office.

As the year progresses, I look forward to working with your child.  Hopefully you will see geography homework being done on a regular basis.  Please follow your his/her progress by checking his/her geography notebook.  All papers (graded and ungraded) are to be kept in it.

Thank you for your continued support.
