Welcome Back!

Dear Parents and Guardians,
My name is Christine Rydlicki and I am your child’s Second Grade Teacher for the 2016-2017 school year. I want to extend to you and your child my warmest welcome into my classroom. This will be my 13th year working in the Dearborn Public School District. I have taught grades K-2 at Oakman before joining the team at William Ford. I have an Early Childhood endorsement and am finishing up my ESL endorsement to better serve our student population. I am very excited about working with your child this year!
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, learning creatively, and learning through play. 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.
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 via email or blog my email address is rydlicc@dearbornschools.org. If you would like to talk in person, I am always available to schedule appointments before and after school.
In lieu of sending home newsletters, I will post updates of what our classes are doing on my blog, you can access my blog via the William Ford website.
I look forward to working together with you and your child this school year.
Thank you,
Mrs. Christine Rydlicki

Also, if you haven’t heard, i am leaving Oakman this year. I am transferring to Willam Ford Elementary school. I will miss you all, but hopefully we’ll see each other again. I’ve enjoyed my years at Oakman *since 2004, but it’s time for a new adventure!

I look forward to seeing you all tomorrow?
