When you can excite students to be a little crazy and just have fun, then you can excite them to learn. I am a holiday person, and these girls loved to join in the fun, they surprised me by joining in dressing for the holiday and then proceeded to print and frame a picture just for me to keep of them. I hung it above my desk and told I would keep it there always. As a teacher we are making memories with each and every student that they will remember, we need to make sure they are happy memories.
