However, the teacher that l remember most was Mrs Green from Marianna, Florida. She was my 5th grade teacher. Since I was a new student, not only in her class, but at the school, she made my time there much more pleasant. I immediately began to like her. She was really funny and I knew that she liked me. She made learning fun. I remember one day for Christmas holidays, she taught us how to make ornaments (装饰物) from eggs. My parents still have some of the ornaments I made.She made me leader for many group projects and that made me feel special. I think that would make any child feel special, especially when a child is in a new place with no friends. She made me want to be like that. Not to pick a favourite student, but to make every student feel that they are special. That year, I received the Presidential Academic Award (美国总统学术奖). I was really proud and so were my parents.Looking back at it, I think the reason why Idd so well was that I felt important. Students do better when they I feel like they are important or loved. Mrs Green always gets to know her students and forms personal relationships with them, which I will try to do someday. I just hope that there will be a student who finds me to their favourite teacher as I found her to be mine.46. The authors life in the new school was very _.A. happy B. common C. hard D. boring47.
