Kenmoor Middle School, Landover
Nominated by Jonece Layne, 12, Beltsville
What Jonece wrote:
"In Ms. Galiber's Spanish II class there are 28 teachers and learners with a collective motto of la educación es la liberación. We live the language and culture by becoming news reporters, acting in plays and dressing up in sombreros during presentations to celebrate holidays such as La Tomatina. She encourages and guides us through the more difficult aspects of Spanish, such as tenses, with Spanish games. I look forward to her class because we think in the language for 72 minutes every day. Everyone contributes in her class, and each contribution is appreciated. She makes the language come alive."
What Ms. Galiber said:
"Jonece may have chosen me as the teacher that inspired her most, but in fact it is Jonece who is the inspiration. Jonece is the kind of student who comes to class every day eager to learn. She makes me want to be a better teacher so that she -- and other students like her -- will continue to come to class with that look in their eye that says, 'I can't wait to see what we are going to learn today.'
