Nice, Intelligent, Noticeable and Awesome for Nina. Loyal, Understanding, Kind and Entertaining for Luke. Joyful, Outgoing, Silly, Entertaining, Peaceful and Helpful for Joseph.

Those were just some of the words students in Rachel Erickson’s third-grade class used as they took a creative step in identifying themselves. The class produced acrostic poems with adjectives that spelled out their name along with magazine pictures or printed emojis to decorate a bulletin board outside their classroom.
