If you've been following me, you know I left my job teaching in April. It was very difficult and both my students and myself shed a few tears. When I returned after school was out to get the things out of my classroom that I had bought, I returned to a stack full of letters and pictures my kids had made for me. There were atleast 50 pages from my kids, as well as 25 cards that they had made with their book buddies. I just now got around to reading them all, partly because I knew it would make me a little sad. They were so cute so I thought I would share a few of them. (I'm going to type them the way they wrote them. Keep in mind they are 2nd grade students, most of who are not native English speakers.)

Dear Mrs. J -
Come to California. Thank you for teaching me how to tell time, it was greatly appreciated.
Love,
