Day Eighteen of Thanks

Giving Thanks Day Post Eighteen

Teachers

If you can read this thank a teacher.

I am thankful for teachers.

Here are some teachers who were my favorites.

Mrs Butterfield was my kindergarten teacher

and I remember that first day when I called her Mrs Buttercup. : )

She was a favorite because she was my first one.

 

Mrs Claxton was my first grade teacher who taught me how to read.

What a wonderful day that was.

The day I could read everyone between school 

and my house new about it.

My mother tells me I came running home down the street

one day from school yelling,

I can read, I can read.

Fourth grade was Mrs Merrick.

Learned my times tables in her class 

and I enjoyed learning how to diagram sentences in her class.

A fun thing we had to do was write a story each week

using all the spelling words for that week.

It was fun hearing all the different stories made from the same words.

I didn't really have any favorite teachers in high school because

by that time I didn't care much for school.

All the teachers are pretty much a blurr 

except for some pretty bad ones and since this is a

thanking teachers post I won't mention them. : )

I am also thankful to my Sunday School teachers.

One in particular, Mrs. Prall. : )

I liked learning all the Bible lessons on the flannel board.

Don't like to call them Bible Stories because they aren't just stories.

 I think it must be harder being a teacher now a days

than it was back when I was a kid.

So much other stuff to deal with than just teaching.

Thank you all past present and future 

TEACHERS.

 

A happy day to you.
