teacher appreciation week

This week is teacher appreciation week. One of my students brought me a gorgeous plant as a gift! It is a black-eyed susan vine. It's a bit different than a normal black-eyed susan plant. It's orange with black centers. The centers of this plant are quite unique. They are sunken in. Here are a couple of pictures....



I think I will plant them in a big pot and put them on my deck. They can climb up my deck. I think that will be glorious. :-)

I also received this drawing.....


I'm not sure if you can read what it says....

"Dear Ms. Howe
Thank you for teaching are class. I like you too. You have pretty hair.
Love Elissa"

Apparently I need to teach "our" and "are". ;-)
