February Newsletter
Hello Parents and Guardians As Mrs. Fournier goes off on maternity leave, I will be taking over as the homeroom teacher for the grade 1/2 class here at St. Michael's. My name is Vanessa D'Addario, or Miss Vanessa, and I am very excited to be your child's teacher for the rest of the year! I look forward to getting to know each student and helping them learn and grow as the year progresses! A little about me, I was born and raised in Ottawa, but have been teaching for the past 6 years at international schools in St. Lucia and Guatemala. I recently returned to my hometown, and am excited to be back here and to be working at St. Michael's! If you have any questions, or if there is anything you think I should know about your child, please don't hesitate to reach out to me. This Month Math In Math, we will be reviewing addition and subtraction strategies that we already know and we will start applying those strategies to double-digit addition and subtraction. W
