Quick Response: Chapter Six

The section that most stuck out to me was the one on what actually motivates students. Some of the examples given were passionate teachers, issues kids care about, connections to the real world, and choices on things that matter. In particular what stood out to me connections to thereal world and passionate teachers. I think it is important in every subject to connect the material the students are learning to every day life and things that are important to them. In terms of passionate teaching, this is a subject that is extremely important to me. In everything I do I am passionate. Things are not worth doing unless they are done with all of you. Therefore, I know that I will be able to be a passionate teacher because history is already something I am passionate about.
