Welcome to Kindergarten!

There is a wonderful sense of home when you walk through the front doors of Samsula Academy. I deeply believe that your child will find our school to be a warm and friendly place. I am very proud to be a part of the Samsula Academy School family. Once you have opened those doors you are a member of our family too.

I wish to welcome you to Kindergarten. Kindergarten is a new and exciting time for you and your child. It’s a time of change… new beginnings, new friends, new challenges and exciting discoveries! I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere appreciation for allowing me to be a part of your child’s life during this precious time of growth and discovery!

This is my honor to welcome you and your child into Kindergarten and into… my life. I will do my best to make this year in Kindergarten enjoyable but also filled with academics. My motto is: “The seeds I plant today will blossom into a flower tomorrow.” It will be my pleasure and privilege to watch your child’s personality and learning abilities blossom and unfold day by day.

I run a very effective classroom which is well structured but allows for fun and growth. I hold high expectations for all my students. Furthermore, I strongly believe in differentiated instruction. Research reveals that all students learn differently. Therefore, I plan my lessons to meet the needs of all students. It will be my honor to expand the growing minds of tomorrow and encourage them to become the great leaders of the new generation.

You will find very useful information on this blog. I will update it with events that are happening in our classroom, student work, and other related events. If you have any questions, you may contact me at cgibbs@readingedgeacademy.org

Field Trip Coming Soon!

Posted by Mr. Gibbs on Wednesday, September 30, 2009
I am very happy to announce that we will be going on our first field study on November 12, 2009! We will be going to see Slim Goodbody's presention of Bodyology! We are so excited to learn more about our small bodies in a fun and interactive way! The field trip forms were sent home today. The cost is $7.00. After the presention, we will be going to Spruce Creek Park in Port Orange, Florida. There, we will eat lunch and go on a nature walk. The money is due by October 13, 2009. It is important we have all slips and money at this time so we can reserve our seats. Scholarships are available -see Mrs. Comardo or Ms. Conrad! We do not need any chaperones for this adventure. If you would like to drive your own car, you can purchase a ticket here: http://www.slimgoodbody.com/

What a great group of students!
