"We are all creative, but by the time we are three of four years old, someone has knocked the creativity out of us. Some people shut up the kids who start to tell stories. Kids dance in their cribs, but someone will insist they sit still. By the time the creative people are ten or twelve, they want to be like everyone
else." -Maya Angelou

Thank You!

"Children are like wet cement. Whatever falls on them, makes an impression." -Dr. Hiam Ginnott

I felt that this quote was fitting for this course.  We have been discussing different impacts that we have on child development throughout the class and at the end of it all, I feel that this quote sums it up.  Children take in everything that we put out for them.  It is our responsibility, as educators, to provide our students with a positive role model; be careful of what we say and do; be respectful of who they are.

Thank you to all of my colleagues for their continued ideas and support throughout this class.  I look forward to working further with all of you in the future.  Good luck in your courses!
