The Heart of a Teacher

Another part of TBA's International Blog-Hopping Day!  This linky is all about the Heart of a teacher!  What teaching means to you!  If you're interested, please click the image above to link up!

Teaching is an opportunity for me to share my love of learning with children.  I believe that through learning new things, anyone can do anything.  In my classroom, I approach learning with excitement and use games, fun/interactive activities, etc to foster a creative, inquiry-based learning environment. I want my students to have a love of reading, and to understand how important reading is in their future.  Overall, being a teacher means that I am there for my students.  Teaching them to love reading and enjoy learning is great, but it is so important to be able to nurture them emotionally and socially as well.  Children needs as many positive influences as they can get, and teaching for me is a chance to be someone that is there for them, someone they can count on, someone to inspire them, and someone to care for them.

I love teaching!  <3
