  "An engineering major and an elementary education major were hiking in the woods when they came across a grizzly bear. Both were terrified and quickly began to search for an escape route, each in her/his own way."

  "The engineering major logged onto his laptop computer and quickly calculated the mathematical differential between his speed and the bear's. His face turned ashen as he stared at the results."

  "The elementary education major simply took off her hiking boots, opened her backpack, slipped on a pair of jogging shoes, and took off."

  "Boy, are you STUPID," the engineering major yelled to the elementary education major as she sprinted down the trail. "My calculations show you can't outrun a grizzly bear!"

  "I don't have to," the elementary education major hollered back. "I only have to outrun YOU!"

  :::::::::::::::::::A Teacher for All Seasons::::::::::::::
  A teacher is like Spring,
  Who nurtures new green sprouts,
  Encourages and leads them,
  Whenever they have doubts.
  A teacher is like Summer,
  Whose sunny temperament
  Makes studying a pleasure,
  Preventing discontent.
  A teacher is like Fall,
  With methods crisp and clear,
  Lessons of bright colors
  And a happy atmosphere.
  A teacher is like Winter,
  While it’s snowing hard outside,
  Keeping students comfortable,
  As a warm and helpful guide.
  Teacher, you do all these things,
  With a pleasant attitude;
  You’re a teacher for all seasons,
  And you have my gratitude!

  Why God Made Teachers..........................................
  By Kevin William Huff.....................................

  When God created teachers,
  He gave us special friends
  To help us understand His world
  And truly comprehend
  The beauty and the wonder
  Of everything we see,
  And become a better person
  With each discovery.

  When God created teachers,
  He gave us special guides
  To show us ways in which to grow
  So we can all decide
  How to live and how to do
  What's right instead of wrong,
  To lead us so that we can lead
  And learn how to be strong.

  Why God created teachers,
  In His wisdom and His grace,
  Was to help us learn to make our world
  A better, wiser place.

  http://rachelschallenge.com/ (Rachel's Challenge)

  We're working to reach EVERY STUDENT IN AMERICA with our message! What is the Message? Students have the power to make PERMANENT, POSITIVE, CULTURAL CHANGE in their schools and communities by accepting the challenge of Rachel Scott to start a chain reaction of kindness and compassion.

  How do we do it? In 3 words we... MOTIVATE, EDUCATE and ACTIVATE. Without any politics, religion or profit involved, we MOTIVATE by grabbing kids hearts in an assembly. We EDUCATE their heads with training and curriculum. We help ACTIVATE them to get involved with their hands through exercises and community service.

  We accomplish this by using different combinations of programs and materials that are age-appropriate for the specific audience.

  Curious? If you work with kids and/or are concerned about future generations check us out - who knows, you may just start a chain reaction.

  (Excellent program! My oldest son and I attended one of the many assemblies held on his high school campus today.)

  " I am a Teacher. I was born the first moment that a question leaped from the mouth of a child. I have been many people in many places. I am Socrates exciting the youth of Athens to discover new ideas through the use of questions. I am Anne Sullivan tapping out the secrets of the universe into the outstretched hand of Helen Keller. I am Aesop and Hans Christian Andersen revealing truth through countless stories. I am Marva Collins fighting for every child's right to an education. I am Mary McCleod Bethune building a great college for my people, using orange crates for desks. And I am Bel Kaufman struggling to go Up the Down Staircase. The names of those who have practiced my profession ring like a hall of fame for humanity...Booker T. Washington, Buddha, Confucius, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Leo Buscaglia, Moses and Jesus. I am also those whose names and faces have long been forgotten but whose lessons and character will always be remembered in the accomplishments of their students. I have wept for joy at the weddings of former students, laughed with glee at the birth of their children and stood with head bowed in grief and confusion by graves dug too soon for bodies far too young. Throughout the course of a day, I have been called upon to be an actor, friend, nurse and doctor, coach, finder of lost articles, money lender, taxi driver, psychologist, substitute parent, salesman, politician and a keeper of the faith. Despite the maps, charts, formulas, verbs, stories and books, I have really had nothing to teach, for my students really have only themselves to learn, and I know it takes the whole world to tell you who you are. I am a paradox. I speak loudest when I listen the most. My greatest gifts are in what I am willing to appreciatively receive from my students. Material wealth is not one of my goals, but I am a full-time treasure seeker in my quest for new opportunities for my students to use their talents and in my constant search for those talents that sometimes lie buried in self-defeat. I am the most fortunate of all who labor. A doctor is allowed to usher life into the world in one magic moment. I am allowed to see that life is reborn each day with new questions, ideas and friendships. An architect knows that if he builds with care, his structure may stand for centuries. A teacher knows that if he builds with love and truth, what he builds will last forever. I am a warrior, daily doing battle against peer pressure, negativity, fear, conformity, prejudice, ignorance and apathy. But I have great allies: Intelligence, Curiosity, Parental Support, Individuality, Creativity, Faith, Love and Laughter all rush to my banner with indomitable support. And who do I have to thank for this wonderful life I am so fortunate to experience, but you the public, the parents. For you have done me the great honor to entrust to me your greatest contribution to eternity, your children. And so I have a past that is rich in memories. I have a present that is challenging, adventurous and fun because I am allowed to spend my days with the future. I am a teacher...and I thank God for it every day." --- Copyright © John W. Schlatter
