Kalel's Raymour & Flanigan Obsession

Earlier this month Kalel came to school telling us "You got to get a gift card from Raymour and Flanigan". He was very persistent that we all needed to get one. Turns out he is infatuated with the commercial and anything Raymour & Flanigan related. I sent over a short video clip of Kalel's rendition of the Raymour & Flanigan advertisement. Not too long after, I received a phone call and an email from Lisa King, Senior Vice President of Marketing / Creative Director, informing us the owners watched the video and were touched by Kalel's attraction to Raymour & Flanigan and wanted to present him with a gift card.

Up to this point, I had made my own "fake" gift cards to use during our math lessons. When I shared the email with the class, they were all excited that Raymour & Flanigan had written back and were going to to give Kalel a gift card.
The Philadelphia Vice President of Sales, Bob Resnik, came to our class today to deliver the gift card to Kalel and his mother. The excitement and joy on Kalel's face when Mr. Resnik presented him with a real gift card was indescribable.
Thank you Lisa King, Bob Resnik and Raymour & Flanigan for having made this possible. This is a memory that will last a lifetime.
