Dear reading students,
This has been an EXCELLENT year, don’t you agree??
I am so proud of ALL of you. Every one of you made progress with your reading, writing and thinking.
You have all grown smarter -- your brains are sponges that continue to grow with all your learning.
I hope I have helped you to be excited about books, reading and learning.
I know I have learned many things from all of you.
I learned that I need to give really good directions.
I learned that I need to show you examples of work.
I learned ways to help you remember to read every day.
Thank you for being respectful, funny and kind students. I have smiled and laughed many times this year.
It’s so much fun to be a teacher.
It’s truly the best job in the world.
Wow, your students are fortunate to have had you this past year.
