Una Carta de Tu Maestra en el Primer Día de Escuela

From the author and illustrator of Our Class Is a Family, this heartwarming book helps teachers welcome a new group of students on their first day of school. Through a letter written from a teacher's point of view, students receive the message that their new teacher is someone with whom they will establish a very special relationship, someone who is not only there to help them academically, but also to encourage them and offer them a safe and loving environment so that they can learn and grow.

In the return to school, teachers seek to set the tone for the rest of the new school year. In addition to explaining the rules and procedures, they are ready to get to know their children and begin to create positive relationships. This read-aloud book helps them lay the groundwork and serves as a great starting point for presentation activities and creating a sense of community in the classroom.

On the last page there is a blank space for teachers to sign the letter with their own name, so students know that the letter is coming directly from them. With its heartfelt message and illustrations that span all strata of society, A Letter from Your Teacher is a valuable addition to any elementary school teacher's classroom library.
