Today I was thinking how lucky I am to be in Mrs. Cruz's classroom. 
I am thankful for my teacher. Mrs. Cruz teaches me to value my education. I am still learning and growing. Mrs. Cruz is a teacher who honestly cares about us. She enjoys solving problems that arise in my classroom which benefits everyone.
Mrs. Cruz is energetic, creative, and enthusiastic. She is always there for me, and always available to my parents. I just want to say one word to Mrs. Cruz. “THANKS,” because in this one word lies all the respect I have for her. This word is proof that the effort of my teacher is fruitful.
I will keep a scrap book of the wonderful moments and things that I have enjoyed. Mrs. Cruz—you will always be in my heart! THANK YOU, MY TEACHER.
