I had this teacher in 5th Grade he is really cool and everybody wants him even the 1st Graders. We do a bunch of things as a school but one thing he does that has kinda become a tradition is every year he asks the class if they would like to raise money to send to the Phillipines(sp?) to help kids get surgery for cleft palate. Most people can't afford the surgery but it's a common problem over there. Everybody always says yes. The class does things to raise money. Some things my class did was a bake sale and a book drive/sale. Everybody knows were doing it and are usually very generous. Even if we only help 5 kids we make a differance. I forgot how much we made. But I remember being shocked we made so much. BYE!
