1. Welcome to Mrs. Villalpando’s Class Please have out your printed schedule.

2. A Letter from Mrs. Villalpando to You

3. Hello! Welcome to our Physical Science class! I love to teach because of the exchange of ideas that students and teachers can share. In order to get to that point, we need to feel comfortable with each other and a great way to get to know each other would be to exchange letters. So I will start with my letter to you.

4. My name is Mrs. Villalpando, but you can call me Mrs. V. I was born in San Diego,

12. After five years there I earned a degree in Physical Science Teacher Preparation. I then decided to earn a masters degree at UCSB

14. After five years there I earned a degree in Physical Science Teacher Preparation. I then decided to earn a masters degree at UCSB so that I could someday teach science at the secondary school level. I taught physics and Earth Science at Lompoc High for 11 years,

I then decided to earn a masters degree at UCSB so that I could someday teach science at the secondary school level. I taught physics and Earth Science at Lompoc High for 11 years, and decided I wanted a change. And that is what led me here to VMS, my sixth year here.

36. In your letter let me, let know me what a goal for yourself for this year will be. My goal for this school year is to teach you the basics of Physical Science, to enjoy, wonder and understand the world you live in. I am really looking forward to working with you this next year and getting to know you through your letters to me. In your letter let me, let know me what a goal for yourself for this year will be.
