I whole heartedly agree with the letter proclaiming what a wonderful teacher Mrs. Komar was. There are people that make a lasting impression on you throughout your lives, and I find myself thinking back to Grade 4 on a regular basis, simply because of Mrs. Komar. For Grade 4 students, especially now with shortened words used during texting, spelling was and is a chore. Mrs. Komar taught her students a little saying in order to remember how to spell the word GEOGRAPHY. It goes like this: George Ebison's Old Grandmother Rode A Pig Home Yesterday. I still find myself reciting that line ever time I spell out that word. Mark Holmes Aurora ]]> 3378 2013-07-31 10:18:23 2013-07-31 14:18:23
