Meme: Passion Quilt


"Monica Reading" by Anne Belov.

To me the greatest joy in teaching is when I see a kid who is so into a book that the rest of the world ceases to exist. That little guy at the back of the room who is so engrossed in Sargent Rock or The Magic Tree House or Captain Underpants that he will be physically ill if I make him put the book down? That's my people, right there. As a first grade teacher getting them to that point of independence is my #1 goal, and when they finally cross that Rubicon....that's why I do it.

Thanks to Dr. Pezz for the tag.
