ROBYN’S LETTER:

 

Jodi just started her 2nd year of teaching while having breast cancer. Even though she is fighting this battle, she always has a smile on her face and a positive attitude. If a student needs something, she’s always willing to provide them with a pen/pencil or whatever they need. When teaching health, she does a unit on healthy snacks and will bring healthy snacks for the kids to eat to show them that there are fun and tasty snacks that are good for them. When not teaching health, she is in different classrooms helping special education students.

In Theaters this weekend: ‘Avatar: Fire and Ash’

Avatar: Fire and Ash picks up after The Way of Water and dives into darker territory, introducing a more aggressive Na’vi tribe tied to fire and volcanic regions. It cranks up the conflict, explores moral gray areas, and shows Pandora is a lot less peaceful than we thought.
