First Year Letters by Julie Danneberg
A Must For First Year Teachers
The children in Mrs. Sarah Jane Hartwells class write letters to her.
Personal Review: First Year Letters by Julie Danneberg
Mrs. Sarah Jane Hartwell is back, in this sequel to "First Day Jitters." On
the first day of school, she sets up a mailbox for her students and the rest
of the school staff to post letters to her. As the year unfolds, via the letters,
the reader learns of all the important adventures and learning that occur in
her classroom during her first year of teaching. There's the disastrous field
trip, the unexpected visits from the firefighter, the observations by the
principal, and the problems with snacks and classroom pets. The full color
illustrations expand the detail offered in the letters. Some of the letters are
shown in their childish handwriting, and there is a huge improvement in
penmanship skills between the beginning and the end of the year. The
others are typeset, which makes the reading easier. This is a delightful
sequel, just as funny as the first book. Read First Day Jitters to a class
during the first week of school, then save this one to read to the same
group during the last week of school. Students and teachers will all wish
they could be in Mrs. Hartwell's class!
