Love love your poem and the paintings you shared this week!! And thanks for all you do for your students each and every day.

Like Margaret, I'm in love with the stanza about the letters for thank you not being able to stretch wide enough to encompass all the gratitude.

Maycember seems about right for the crazy month of May in a school!! Steady on! You've got this!

Ah, what a sweet appreciation poem from the student's perspective. I love the spacing in your poem, especially, "You understand

that neither ideas nor appreciation line up

straight."

But it didn't keep it like yours--and how it looked when I first sent it! You know what I mean.

I started watching Abbott Elementary at the advice of my daughter. It’s so spot on and funny. I love how your poem expresses appreciation. I especially like the line about spelling since I am spending time with a grandson who is working on spelling words out. Happy Teacher Appreciation and Mother’s Day. I always felt it was a week of decadence, eating all of the treats!
