Donovan Taylor Hall’s Visit to Havern School

Donovan Taylor Hall is a very special person who came to our school. When we walked in our room in the morning, he greeted us with enthusiasm and a smile. 

Mr. Donovan was so kind to us and treated us like we were young adults. He has a lot of zest to him and he even taught us that word. Zest is a character trait that means you are energetic and excited about life. 

Mr. Donovan was a very interactive and outgoing person. At lunch, he managed to eat with most of the middle school students. Later in the day, we had a workshop where we talked to each other and he was open with us and shared his experience with us. 

Mr. Donovan did a workshop with everyone and we learned about new inspiring words to describe character traits. Some of the traits we learned were zest, prudence, bravery, and creativity. We talked about what they mean and how to improve on the traits in ourselves. He also taught us how to see these traits in other people. 

In conclusion, our experience with Mr. Donovan was very positive and inspiring. He made us feel proud of ourselves in a short period of time. We hope to connect with him on social media and keep working with him.
