Farewell, dear class from your teacher Su

Dear class,
This isn’t the last class, but it’s certainly a very important time for you and us, Kate and me. It means almost the end of the Teddy Bear Project for most of you. We won’t have any activities or classes any more. I think I will miss you and the time we’ve shared.
I still remember the exciting moment we first met. It would be back to the first beginning you entered this class, this school. You were so cute and charming. Most of you still are now. As for the ones in other classes, the time would be the second semester last year and for Cindy, it’s only a few months ago.
Although we are from different classes, we still get along very well. We worked together and we shared the wonderful time. Do you remember the time we packed our Isabear? We attended the computer class? We wrote our English diaries? The first time we tried to build our own blogs? And the first time to record our writings and then posted it on Podomatic? Yes, we also can’t forget the time we had African dance. These are all wonderful memories to all of us.
At the end of the class, as your English teachers, we would want you to keep on studying English and love to learn everything. With this international tool, English, you may open you eyes to the world and you can also find many interesting things you want to know or the people you love to meet. Learning is a life long process. Enjoy your learning. To be successful is great; however, don’t forget to taste every moment while you are learning. To read a warm short stories, we smile; to watch a wonderful movie, we cry along; to join an interesting activity, we also cherish the time and feeling we share. Kate and I would love to see you all love to read, enjoy learning and be happy every day and for a long, long time.
The reason why we had a such special class is due to the help of our Taipei County Educational Department because we applied for a program called NDYS, which is sponsored by Japanese i*earn. We got some money from TCED. That’s the reason we can have a foreign teacher, a dance teacher, your little Teddy Bear Books and the English books we are going to give you today.
Finally, I am sorry to say that only 4 students can be at NDYS Kaohsiung in March. Although I tried so hard to ask for more students to join it, they just couldn’t agree with my request because of the limit of space, the short of money and host families. I will still keep on trying. If there is any chance for you to go, I will certainly let you know. Don’t feel bad, Ok?
Thanks all of you for everything. I hope we’ll have the chance to gather again.
Your teacher Su, Jan. 7,2009
