Mrs Yollis is a very special third grade teacher in California.
We have spent much time this year learning from her class blog. She’s also left some amazing comments for us throughout the year.
Even though Mr. Avery has never actually met Mrs Yollis, he considers her a great friend. She has helped him in so many ways to make his classroom the exciting place it is today!
June 11th is a very special day for Mrs Yollis!

We got together with out blogging buddies in Mrs. Morris and Miss Jordan’s class (2KM and 2KJ), Mr. Salsich’s class and Mrs. McKenzie’s class (B4) to create this special “happy birthday” video.

Dear Mr. Avery and students,
I cannot begin to put into words how happy you made me! When I saw the links in the sidebar that all said, “Happy Birthday Mrs. Yollis” I thought I was seeing things! You know, I am fifty after all!
Then when I clicked and watched your beautiful birthday video…I must say, I started crying. The tears were not the kind of tears that come from being sad, but rather the type of tears that come from pure joy!
I’ll never forget this precious gift that you gave to me!
Your forever friend,
Mrs. Y♥llis
California
