  • How Are We Unique? How Do We Celebrate Our Global Community? How does where we live effect how we live and who we are? How can we be the best we can in everything we do? What can we discover to help us understand our world? How are we connected? Do our early experiences with nature create a sense of responsibility to the earth and its inhabitants? What is change? In What ways Does The Earth Speak? What are the meaningful moments in my life? What is our perspective of the world around us? What is Magical about Nature? What lasting treasure can we find in the changes that occur in ourselves, our families and our world? How does change affect global awareness and citizenship? How do our diverse backgrounds enrich our lives as Canadians? How Does Mythology Reveal Where We Are? What does it mean to live a life of purpose? What is Beautiful? What can we do to make our world a better place? How must we be the change we wish to see in the world? How are we connected? How is the layered landscape revealed to us? What do we know about Polar Bears? Change is constant and occurs in patterns all around us

  •  We have to create learning spaces that allow all students the best opportunity to learn.
  •  There’s no need for a student struggling in reading to fall behind in science if they can learn the information from an audio file or text-to-speech screen reading software.  
  •  Why should a student who struggles with writing be forced to take notes, when they can record the information for later playback, or type the notes on a computer.

  • Never work harder than your students?
  • The reality is that the student is a vital participant and partner in education.
  • Master teachers understand that it has to be the student's unwritten goal to keep up with the master teacher, primarily because the master teacher has effectively become the role model for all of the students in the classroom.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • The master teacher must work much harder than the students, and work shoulder to shoulder with the students to achieve success.
  • effective teachers that use film appropriately as a learning tool.
  • One of the major tenets of a master teacher is that she always honors the students' time and effort for coming to school and she will do whatever it takes to give students the very best education possible that day and every day.
