Current in Noblesville’s October Teacher of the Month winner was Mrs. Miller, a kindergarten teacher at Hinkle Creek Elementary. Her student, Dawson Howard, nominated her by writing a 100-word essay. Their reward? A classroom pizza party and $50 gift card from Market District, the Teacher of the Month sponsor.

Here is Dawon’s winning essay:

I like to play in my discovery centers. Mrs. Miller puts a kitchen center, math tubs, and you sew stuff in fine motor in discover centers. Those are my favorite things. Mrs. Millers gives us purple tickets if we get on purple. When we be good, we get on purple. How we be good is by listening. Mrs. Miller tells us funny things like, “Dawson you knocked my socks off” when she’s not even wearing socks. At cougar challenge she said, “go Dawson, go!”  It makes me feel good. I feel happy. Every part of school makes me happy. Every week she teaches us sight words. She teaches us our numbers. We learn by singing songs. Mrs. Miller is kind.
