Brad Glinka, 4th grade teacher at Randolph Elementary is our Crystal Apple winner for January! This is what his nomination said:
Mr. Brad Glinka, a 4th grade teacher at Randolph Elementary is your next teacher of the month! I have the best of both worlds, I am a co-worker to Brad and my daughter has him as a teacher! I get to see the energy and enthusiasm he puts into his class everyday. He builds relationships and connects to not only his class, but all students at Randolph. Mr. Glinka has a personality that makes kids feel important safe to learn. Who wouldn’t want their kids in his class?!? I asked several of his 4th grade students to tell me what they most like about their teacher and this is their nominations in their own words:
Mr. Glinka is finny and nice but he isn’t like other teachers because he does funny pranks like to you get you in a better mood and mindset and he wants you to understand how this works and how that works and he is a special teacher because his reward steam is so different and I like to work for things and so it makes me work harder and I think that is amazing and cool. This is why I think my teacher Mr. Glinka should be teacher of the month. -Brooklyn
First, he is an amazing teacher and he is also very funny and kind and loves to joke around. He is very respectful and gives you space and that will help problems that are going on. I think he should win teacher of the month because he challenges us and makes you think hard and you do not understand he will try to help as much as he can. -Bridget
He is a very kind, nice and outgoing person and funny person who will make a joke to lighten up the mood. Mr. Glinka is a person who will do anything to make you happy like he might give you a chip or he might make a joke. He will give you a challenge and he will give you a certain time to finish but if you don’t finish he will give you some extra time.
