Children: "There are no seven wonders of the world in the eyes of a child.There are seven million".Walt Streightiff.

For me as a teacher the children are part of my life,I always give the best of me to them,that dreary would be the world without children.
I love them,and  shared experiences and best moments of life with them.

"This is the treasure we need today-helping the child become independent of us and make his way by himself,receiving in return his gifts of hope and light" Maria Montessori

 If teaching is to be effective with young children, it must assist them to advance on the way to independence. It must initiate them into those kinds of activities which they can perform themselves and which keep them from being a burden to others because of their inabilities. We must help them to learn how to walk without assistance, to run, to go up and down the stairs, to pick up fallen objects, to dress and undress, to wash themselves, to express their needs in a way that is clearly understood, and to attempt to satisfy their desires through their own efforts. All this is part of an education for independence." (The Discovery of the Child, Maria Montessori)

 Being able to see that child is going ahead and doing things increasingly alone,as an educator makes me feel that I'm doing a good job!,because tomorrow will be children with the ability to solve there own problems.
