One more week of prep, seminars & registration, then classes start. I literally & truly can not wait! I've been dreaming about teaching...sadly, I was dreaming about teaching on the unions in the gilded age, which I won't get to cover this semester since I am teaching HIST2010, not 2020. That isn't entirely true, I will get to cover a bit of it in the Tech in Society humanities class {I'm teaching 3 classes of that, which makes planning simple}...
...but I'm sure this does not make for riveting blog fodder~*
Today's motivations are a nod to those teachers out there-- whatever the grade, method or discipline {& of course including parents, the most valuable teachers of all}.
That first quote is so great. I would love my kids to come away from school with an enriched imagination, good critical thinking skills and a passion for learning. Unfortunately, they often come away with lots of filled in worksheets. Boring!
ReplyDeletesome great quotes
