January 2008: Rinda Gildner

"I love fifth graders. They are old enough to get your jokes, but young enough to still be pleasant most of the time. Just a nice group.

I think reading is the most important thing anyone is going to learn. Success and everything depends on how well you read. Read with your children when they are young. Have them read to you when they get older. Participate in school activities.

When you teach you touch a life. But what they don't realize is how many times they touched my life.

Keep learning forever. Education doesn't stop when you graduate high school.

I teach fifth grade at Casa Loma School."
