themselves during the school year

want to bring out the best in all
of my students.

do it!

6. Teaching is important to me because. . .
I am able to be a part of a child’s learning and
growth throughout their primary years of school.
It’s a wonderful feeling to be with children and
see their faces light up when they discover
something new and exciting.

can, and
should be fun
for children
and adults of
all ages!
