This book is an all time favorite for a lot of readers, I personally think this is a great example of what students think about their teachers on the first day of school, at least in the upper grades. I would have my students write their own narrative on the teacher from the "BRIGHT" Lagoon, therefore, they have to describe a teacher that they like and want to expand on. I would do this at the beginning of the year and have the students share their "Bright" Lagoon story with the class. ( )
