Student Teacher Request

Dear Parents of Moretown Elementary School,

My name is Elisa Otter and I am currently student teaching in Pam Dow's 1/2 classroom.
As a part of my studies I have been assigned to ask student grades 1-6 three questions regarding their learning preferences of working within groups versus individually.
This information will be synthesized into a research paper I will be writing.

Names of students will not be used. The paper will only be seen by my professor at Antioch University.

If this is at all an issue for your family, please let Duane know at dpierson@wwsu.org  and we will be sure your child not take part in the conversation.

Sincerely,
Elisa Otter
