"I have grown to appreciate the task of helping children take better care of themselves, of each other, and of their classrooms. It's not a waste. It's probably the most enduring thing that I teach. In a world filled with global violence and threats of environmental devastation, where drugs and guns are easily available, learning to be more decent and to build caring communities is hardly a waste of time." -Ruth Sydney Charney, Teaching Children to Care
"I like a teacher who gives you something to take home to think about besides homework." -Lily Tomlin as "Edith Ann"

I love Share Circle.
Me: "And Steven, what is your goal for this week?" Steven: "My goal is to be friends with the animals. It's my job in my kingdom in the fields." Me: "That's a great goal. Thank you for sharing."
