"In the good years, work very hard to win everything that's possibly winnable. In the bad years, work just as hard to keep your losses to a minimum. There are good times, and there are bad times. But you have to stay in the game.

Carlos,
ReplyDeleteThese are some very nice quotes. These quotes inform future Early Childhood professionals that it takes hard work and dedication to work in such as unique field. This also gives us motivation to continue to work hard but the reward in the end is worthwhile. I love working with children and dedicating my time to improving their lives for a better future.
I really like your 3rd quote by Doug Lemov. In our society today, teachers are often the scapegoats whenever something goes wrong or someone need to be blamed. Your quote should be remembered when witch hunts are being carried out against educators. Everyone has benefited from the help of an educator at some point in their life.

"Without Great Teachers, Nothing Else Matters"~Doug Lemov~ Enough said, that said it all in a nutshell. being a teacher is one of the best jobs aside from being a parent. Knowing that you are giving knowledge to a child something that that will take to their next level in life is a great feeling.
