Teacher’s Name

Hallie Bahr

How do you know the teacher?

My mum

What does this person teach?

4th grade

Why do you think the teacher should be recognized or honored?

She is very fun and engaging and gets to know and love each student personally. She has many of her own creative activities to keep them busy, which is something I would have loved to do as a kid. There are a few like Goldrush Day where they do virtual field trips and the mini economy where students bring in small toys or crafts and buy them with the Bahr Bucks they earn. She loves telling me about her students and activities and is very passionate and enthusiastic about each one.

What do you think everyone should know about the teacher?

She does her job because she loves it. She loves teaching, getting to know the kids, and having a little family in the classroom.
