Dear Students and Parents/Guardians,
Assalamu Alayikom Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
I hope you’ve had a prosperous summer, Ramadan and
Eid. My name is Dina Zaazaa and I will be your child’s homeroom teacher for the
2013-2014 school year. I will be teaching Math, Language Arts, Science, Social
Studies, Islamic Studies, Art, and Health/Gym. I want to extend to you and your
child my warmest welcome into my classroom. Although this will be my first year
working at Abraar School, I do have more than ten years of teaching experience
and I have no doubt that my work with the Abraar community will enrich this
experience even more.
My philosophy for learning is that each child is
unique, and each child learns in a different way. One of my jobs as a teacher
is to help your child discover his or her individuality and work alongside with
them to maximize it. I believe in hands-on experiences and learning creatively.
It is my goal to create a community of learners who are committed to working
hard and having fun. I want students to leave my classroom feeling confident
that they can apply what they’ve learned in school to real-life situations. I
want my students to feel challenged and to have an enhanced passion for
learning.
It is important that my students know they can seek my
assistance in any matter they find difficulty with; they need to know I am
there for them. Collaboration, cooperation, and open communication between home
and school are keys to building a strong foundation for a successful school
year. Please
feel free to contact me at anytime. I can be reached through the school phone
number 613-321-5002 or by email at dzaazaa@abraarschool.com . I am always happy to talk to the families of my
students.
Sincerely,
Dina Zaazaa
