Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceEveryday is a new adventure. I really try to make lasting memories with my student always dressing up and coming up with new ways to inspire them to practice reading. Today I was dressed like Billy holiday for black history. Last month I dressed like a giant gingerbread man and raced the kids. Next month the reading challenge winner gets to pie me. One of my favorite lessons was teaching ocean habitats in scuba gear.
