This I believe...
I believe that teachers need to assist students in becoming more excited to learn through enticing activities that provoke learning, while moving and interacting throughout the classroom. Worksheets and tests are not enough. Teachers need to face the fact that children need to be more involved in the classroom. Students should be able to participate in new activities every day. Diversification is the key. How can children be provoked to learn when they are presented with new material and similar homework problems every day? They cannot. The creative juices of children need to start flowing. This can happen with a fresh approach to teaching. I think that teachers should be collaborating on lesson plans and sharing ideas. The more diverse ideas for a curriculum, the better. Children can become excited because they do not know what new, exciting, project with be implemented in the classroom next.

I totally agree! Your opinion about creating a more diverse and exciting way of teaching everyday, I feel is very important. Especially in this day and age, we are going to need creative minds in our future business men and woman, teachers, political leaders, and etc. and I feel that it all starts in the classroom like you said. :) good job.
