To Whom It May Concem,
It is with great pleasure that I write this letter of recommendation on behalf of Kayce McCain. 1
have known Kayce for the past four months; as a student teacher in my classroom. Kayce
immediately came across as an extremely positive and energetic person. Through her guidance,
students assume responsibility for their learning and make appropriate choices. It is very
obvious that students feel sofe and are willing to take risks when Kayce is around. Kayce is
aware of the individual needs of her students and builds on prior knowledge while teaching them.
She has a great understanding of how students Jearn and and utilizes a variety of strategies to
meet the diverse needs of her students. Kayce immediately captures a student's interest and
‘maintains a high level of excitement throughout any activity or lesson she is presenting.
Kayce consistently demonstrates effective classroom management. The activities the students
engage in are meaningful and focus on the standards. While teaching, she utilities variety in ber
presentation so that students want to become involved in their learning. Kayce explains
activities in a clear, concise manner so that children are able to work independently. She is
always looking for new creative and fun ways to encourage positive behavior. When you
combine Kayce’s instructional techniques with her high expectations for positive behavior and
her positive approach, good things happen for all leamers.
Kayce possesses many qualities that any schoo] would find valuable. Her genuine love for
children is evident in her teaching. ] would be honored to have my own children in her
classroom, which is the highest recommendation I can give. I highly recommend Kayce as a
prospective teacher who will make an outstanding contribution to her students and her school.
