| Welcome to Miss Myrick's Fifth Grade Class |
| I am so excited about this school year! This is my third year teaching and my third year in fifth grade. The third time is always a charm! It will be fun and rewarding as you learn how to comprehend, or understand what you read, write well, and prepare for middle school. You will have a lot of responsibility as the oldest students in the school and I am confident you are all looking forward to being role models for the younger students at Landstown. We will all work together to make this a memorable school year. Working as a team will ensure positive results. "Hi ho, Hi ho, off to work we go..." |
