Sweet Day of a Brooklyn Teacher
All the classes in my school are doing community service projects each month. My class wanted to clean litter from the street/parks in Brooklyn, but it’s chilly and I wanted an indoor activity!
So I asked if anyone had a family member in the military. One of my students had a brother in the army in Iraq. So we’ve adopted him and plan to send his troop a package of goodies for Valentine’s Day. My students busily put together banners, cards and wrote an original song! So much excitement from a group of sixth graders who want to make a great package to let the troops know we appreciate them!
Teaching….some days it can be so sweet.
Hugs,
marlene

Hi Marlene –
I found your site after seeing that you are a follower on my site. I’m also a teacher – 3rd grade and I completely understand how some days it can be “so sweet”. Of course your kids wanted to clean litter in a park! Anything to get outside, right!?!
