If we expect students to be winners and expect them to do well, they will rise to the occasion.
If we expect kids to be losers they will be losers; if we expect them to be winners they will be winners. They rise, or fall, to the level of the expectations of those around them, especially their parents and their teachers.
Ask 'How will they learn best?' not 'Can they learn?'.
You burros have calculus in your blood.
It goes like this: teaching is touching life
Life is not about how many times you fall down. It's about how many times you get back up.
