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.'
Cool Introductions
-Each student puts three things about themself on an unnamed piece of paper which is then squashed into a paper snowball.
-The students are then allowed a 'safe' 30 sec snowball fight.
-Once time is up children each find a snowball. They unwrap it then have to find out whose paper it is.
Adaptation: Could be used to exchange facts on a topic of study.
