Martha, I love your choice of quotes. The fourth one is my favorite.

BEAUTIFUL!!! The quote about leaving an impression on children is so true. I used to become sad when I would see former students and they did not remember me, but when I would continue to observe them, and they would perform that I taught them, in the manner I showed them, I begin to realize that remembering me is not the important thing, but remembering the skill is.
ReplyDeleteMartha, what wonderful quotes! I love the one about worrying about who a child will become in the future instead of who they are at the moment. This is SO true. Children are precious individual who should be respected for who they are in the here and now. Thank you for your contributions to the class. I have enjoyed reading your blog and look forward to seeing you in future classes.
