My last year's class was very bright and very quiet. I had one little girl who would barely even speak when I was around. Even when working one on one she was extremely timid. She was a 'B/C' average student. Now she is in the 4th grade. During recess a few weeks ago, she walks up to me and says, "Here Miss Harris. This is for you." She gave me a white envelope that said "MISS HARRIS" on the front. I opened it up. She had typed a letter to me over the weekend saying how she loved being in my class and she would always remember me. The letter touched my heart so much that I gave her a hug and said, "Thank you!" I talked to her father about it a few days later and he elaborated on how much of an influence I was on her last year. I didn't expect this at all!
