This is one question we'll be asked to share at our small group tables tomorrow during our first inservice session.
Since I was privy to the question ahead of time, I couldn't help but think about my response.
"I get kid to laugh."
"I make learning fun and relevant."
"I get to know the kids."
Those came to mind. But they seemed too general. I wish I could come up with a strategy that I used in every single class. But sometimes I don't even know what I'm going to do in class until I see what the kids want to do or at least see what is on their minds. Then I take that and try to relate it to whatever we're studying.
But then I thought, hey, I have them write every day.
Then my answer hit me - "I get kids to love writing."
Not a bad way to spend a day. And I get paid for it.
