Math Coach's Corner with Ms. Perkins

August 7, 2024

Dear Parents/Guardians and Students,
    
My name is Ms. Tamieka F. Perkins, and I am entering my 22nd year in the Macon County School System. It is my goal to provide an educational experience that will have a positive impact on your child’s life. 

Each year is an exciting time as children embark upon new adventures in the world of learning. It is also a year of important transitions, and one in which learning and performing new skills is accelerated.  

Although this year will be full of important changes, it is very essential to keep in mind each child develops and progresses at his/her own rate. Therefore, encouragement and continuing to build a secure educational foundation for growth is a priority.  Here are some ways you can help:

1.    Celebrate your child’s success, no matter how small.  This keeps your child enthusiastic about learning.

2.    Read to and with your child everyday, if possible.  The more positive language your child hears, the easier it will be for him/her with reading and writing in the classroom.

3.    Come by and check on your child periodically. Children love to show their parents off to the world. 

4.    Ask us if you have a question about a skill. Believe it or not, teachers practice keeping our skill levels up. I have no problem with showing you how we use our math brains to solve a problem.

I am sure this is going to be a great year!

Your partner in education!
