Every week we honor another awesome teacher in the local area with our ‘Teacher of the Week’ award!

Congratulations to Jill Brockshink of Bowman Woods Elementary in Cedar Rapids, this week’s ‘Teacher of the Week!” Jill was nominated by an anonymous parent, and here’s what they had to say:

"Jill is such an amazing teacher. She makes learning so much fun so the students actually enjoy school. She also understands the importance of actually caring about each individual student and family personally. She spends time each day on activities that are outside the box, outside the "common core" bore... such as social skills building activities. And her students love her "brain breaks!" She knows that sitting in a seat all day thinking can be hard for young students and she takes time to dance and be silly or do things throughout the day that give brain breaks and help get through the day! She also shares all of the great things the students do on a family facebook page so that we know what our students are doing daily, which greatly helps with discussions with our children! She takes her role in these students lives seriously and I am so happy my daughter is in her class!!"
