“Promise me you will always remember – YOU ARE braver than you believe,
stronger than you seem and smarter than you think.” -Christopher Robin to
Winnie the Pooh
The most important thing I want my students to remember is
that *I believe in them.* They are allowed to believe they can fly; they are
allowed to imagine their dreams; they are allowed to discover that they can do
anything. As a teacher, it is my duty not to diminish this one life they have
but to encourage it and teach them how to fly. :)
