Children do not interrupt my work, children are my work. One hundred years from now it will not matter what kind of car I drove, what kind of house I lived in, how much money I had in the bank, nor what my clothes looked like. But the world may be a little better because I was important in the life of a child. Teachers take time with the little things that count. Teachers make little things count.
Teachers make two ideas grow where only one grew before.
Be a teacher who inspires their respect and loyalty. Be the kind of person you want them to grow to be. All children are gifted . . . There is no substitute for a good teacher. Nothing improves a student s hearing more than praise.
