I get quite attached to my classes each year. I admit that I do have favorites. Any teacher that says they don't is a liar. I also admit that I consider these kids to be "mine" long after they graduate Kindergarten. But rarely do I get to keep in close contact with any of them. Payten Brown is the exception. Because her momma and I are tight, I get to see PayPay regularly. Today I got to read her latest publication entitled, I Played With My Frined Maci. Ok, so she mispelled "friend." Did I mention that she is SIX?! Last year we worked on 3 page stories with a beginning, middle, and end. This story is 9 pages long complete with detail, punctuation, capitalization, and illustrations. These are the things that make a teacher proud!Payten- You earned a big ol :) with a Mr. Sketch smelly marker. Keep on writing hippy chick.
