"A good question is never answered. It is not a bolt to be tightened into place but a seed to be planted and to bear more seed toward the hope of greening the landscape of idea."
-- John Ciardi
I believe that my role as a teacher is in making fertile this landscape of idea. Often the students hear me say that my goal is for them to leave our classroom with more dendrites than when they entered it! In addition, I feel strongly that it is important to attend to my students' social and emotional needs, as well, so that they may grow into themselves, allowing their learning to be unencumbered. The responsibility of nourishing the minds and hearts of young people is one that I take very seriously. I anticipate that this will be a year of great growth!
