I would like to thank Mrs. Capers, a fifth grade teacher, for encouraging her students to observe and respect nature by participating in Arbor Week. I also would like to thank Miss Savannah Freeman For her wonderful poster. I plan to frame my poster and share it with my family and friends.
Sincerely
