Teaching is....what? A passion, a lifestyle, a yearning or a calling? Maybe all and more. Every day brings a new thing to learn and another child (or me) learning it. I teach for the 'lightbulb' moment. That moment of realisation when a student and an idea connect.
"Treat all people as you would like to be treated, with kindness and compassion."
'Love is the greatest gift in all the world. Give it wisely and honestly; accept it gratefully and open heartedly.'
Create a box which has three compartments labelled 1's, 10's and 100's. Every day place a straw or paddle pop stick into the 1's box. When you reach ten get a student to bundle those ten with a rubber band and place it in the 10's container. Continue making bundles of ten until you have 10 bundles of 10 which then get bundled and put in the hundreds container. Continue for whole year.
