My favorite quote and life motto

"Kids go where there is excitement. They stay where there is love." by Zig Ziglar is my favorite quote and one of the mottos I live by.  I am a firm believer in capturing the imagination of children and a great way to do that is by fueling their excitement.  When I was a teacher I noticed when the children were excited about activity or lesson it captured their attention and they excelled at it. Also I believe if a teacher truly loves their job and is passionate about it then the students will be more apt to learning from them.  I feel this is because the teachers who are love teaching children will make the environment conducive to learning and will go the extra mile to make sure the students are working their potential.

  1. Keeping children excited about learning is definitely one of the biggest challenges teachers face. We need to remember that learning should be fun, not boring. We might have to constantly change our learning styles, but as long as it is working, it is worth it.
