“A Letter to My Teacher, Ms. Lam” is my last prompted writing piece I assigned to my students in Kindergarten and first grade during the last week of school for my memory keepsake.

From Ms. Lam’s Kindergarten Class of 2010-2011

My class of 2010-2011 is located in an upper middle-class community with many parent support, resources, a detailed curriculum, a collaborating team, and a supporting principal.

On the board, I would write four questions and my students are to answer the questions in a complete sentence to complete this writing prompt.

1. Why do you love me?
2. What did you learn in Kindergarten?
3. What is your favorite thing to do in Kindergarten?
4. What do you like to do in Kindergarten?
