AMEN!

I came across this and thought is was most appropriate and so true!  As schools prepare to administer the state mandated standardized test, it is my hope that teachers, administrators, and parents encourage students to do their very best, rather than create a sense of urgency or dread, which leads to testing anxiety. It has always been my firm belief that if we teach everyday (to our very best), engage students, and motivate them to learn, they will perform to their very best.  Additionally, this visual reminds me that EVERYONE should always be learning:  because life truly does teach us something everyday.  Our mind must be open to receive, process, critically think and evaluate, so learning can take place!  Cheers to learning!
