1/3/11

Back to work today...I love my job for many reasons.
the kids
the creativity (most of the time)
the adventure
the learning

I like the idea that we get to regularly reflect on what we do and make it better. There's always next year, right? However this idea is also a great frustration of mine. Surrounded by different humans, in different situations, on each different day, different hour, different minute...whatever worked may not work again. I strive to be better. To give each learner what the need, what they want, to be successful.

This link is to a video that perhaps did not teach me anything new, but it gave me a lot to think about when considering the state of education in 2011. What can you do to enhance a child's learning?
