"If we want to invest in the prosperity of our nation, we must invest in the education of our children so that their talents may be fully employed.” ~President William J. Clinton
"Children benefit most from teachers who have the skills, knowledge, and judgment to make good decisions and are given the opportunity to use them." ~Susan Bredekamp, Ph.D., Author of Developmentally Appropriate Practices
"Children are not succeeding because they are not given the tools they need not because they don't have the intelligence" ~Louise Derman-Sparks
"(Education) Is not all about you. You have to take your ego out of it and think about what's best for the child." ~Renatta Cooper
I really like the quote by Renatta Cooper. It is so true that we need to think about what is best for the child....it seems that some teachers allow their ego to get in the way of things which tends to hinder so much.
