Dear Staff,

 I think Mrs. Miller should be teacher of the month. Mrs. Miller is a phenomenal teacher. She makes language arts really fun. She is able to convince us to get out of our comfort zone and try new things, like different genres. During class she has fun ways of teaching. She gives us a fun engaging way to learn. She takes time to talk to each individual student about goals and schoolwork and always helps us with our struggles. When other teachers are getting plans together at recess, she is helping students when they are confused. Mrs. Miller is so kind and is there to talk to us if we are down. Some people think of her as a second mom because she is also always there when we need her most. Mrs. Miller deserves to be teacher of the month because she is a kind, fun-loving, amazing teacher.

Sincerely,

Hannah Pensyl
