A Little About Me:

My name is Nikki Bell and this is my 10th year teaching, but 4th year here at TVCS. Many of you may remember me from the Primary Center, which is where I spent three wonderful years. I graduated from UNC- Chapel Hill with my Bachelors and Concordia University with my Masters in Education. I have six wonderful children that attend TVCS. My family is a soccer loving family, as we are all heavily involved with the sport. Teaching is my passion and I hope you see that through your children. I am very excited about teaching 3rd grade this year and cannot wait to meet you all.

SOME IMPORTANT INFO:

 

  • If you plan to chaperone any field trips, you have to fill out a new 2018 Volunteer Form (cannot use last years) as well as an updated copy of ID on file with the front office. I attached the form below. I encourage you to do this soon because it can easily be forgotten and it takes time to process.
  • Have emergency contact forms filled out and turned in before the first day of school. Orientation is the best time to do so.

Accelerated Reader Program (AR)

The Accelerated Reader (AR) program is a computer program that provides teachers and children with a fun and exciting way to boost reading skills. This program also serves as an assessment tool that allows me to monitor both the quantity and quality of reading practice that your child is engaged in. In my classroom we use Accelerated Reader in order to help students improve reading comprehension as well as to help them develop a love for reading. Accelerated Reader is an independent reading program based on the principle that practice improves reading.  To view your child's progress in the AR (Accelerated Reader) program you can visit the website listed below. It is easy to get signed up and use this great service. You will receive emails to your personal email address when you child has tested. It is a valuable tool to use keeping in touch with your child's progress. Please take advantage of this resource offered to you. We are already racking up AR points so that we can earn as many AR points as possible.  The first grade goal is 25 points by May.  All first graders earning 25 points will get to attend the annual pancake breakfast.  I have also encouraged students to aim higher towards the 100 point club.  Students who earn 100 points will get to attend the annual pizza party.
