think
her name was
perfect, she
knew it.”

4. I love my family-especially when they are
silly.
“You just
can’t do
whatever
you please

you’re part

5. If you give Ms. Garcia popcorn, she’s going to ask
for a Dr. Pepper.
“If you

mouse a
cookie.”
9. I love school so much, I want to be a teacher and
then be a counselor.
“Do you believe
in me? Because I
believe in me.”
Dalton Sherman
The mediocre teacher tells.
The good teacher explains.
The superior teacher
demonstrates. The great
teacher inspires. William
Arthur Ward
The dream begins with a
teacher who believes in
you, who tugs and pushes
and leads you to the next
plateau, sometimes poking
you with a sharp stick
called ‘truth.’ Dan Rather
