Welcome to Ms. Micalizzi’s Class
Dear Families,
Hello! My name is Cara Micalizzi, and I will be your child’s teacher in the Trumbull/Monroe Head Start program at Trumbull Early Childhood Center. I am looking forward to seeing our students from last year and can’t wait to meet our new ones! Along with our wonderful para-educator, we will have a wonderful year of fun and learning!
In a few weeks, we will have a chance to meet you and your child at our scheduled home visits. It will be a chance for you to introduce your child to me in their home where they feel most comfortable. This will give us a chance to have a conversation about your child’s favorite things and this will help the child to have a smooth transition into Head Start. Please have a family photo ready to hand in during this meeting. We will add your photo to our family tree, your child will be able to visit the tree to see a picture of his or her family if they are feeling sad.
Traditional themes and units are blended with student’s interests in a fun, hands-on approach. The centers are planned for your child to learn through-out play. We will also have structured activities in music, art, speech, language and social skills.
Please consider joining me in our monthly Head Start Parent meetings where you can learn more about upcoming activities that will be happening in the classroom as well field trips, special events and volunteer opportunities you can be a part of.
I am looking forward to meeting you and your child! This is going to be a great year! Thank you for volunteering!
Sincerely,
Cara Micalizzi
