I am constantly searching on how to be the very best teacher I can be. What can I do to inspire my kids even more? What can I do to reach that one student who seems to be behind the rest? How can I make this day more fun and still packed with learning? I think about how I can bring smiles to the faces of my students and how to get them excited about learning.
I wake up and go to bed thinking of these students. Some of them have a rough life. Some of them have seen and experienced things I could never even imagine dealing with. Some of these kids have to grow up before they are ready to because of what their own unique situation is. I want to be that safe spot, the creative outlet, the nurturing environment they need to succeed not only this year, but to be excited to continue on with their education.
