Rating: (4 / 5) Flag as inappropriate
I enjoyed the food the recess and reading also my teacher , mrs. Welch was nice I just HATED math every one learns at there own pace and every one has diffrent strategys of learning and I understand that but the teachers did not I think they could care a bit more about there students also .mabe it would be nice to take time to find there intrests that way that they could relate to the children as there teaching them . Also I think that the school counsler should not be saying being FAT is better than smoking because being fat can cause heart failure and clogged arteries so I think mrs. Davedson should go I miss you all and love you though so I suppose it wasn't that bad
