What makes a good teacher?

here are a few ideas that me and my mom came up with:

• The teacher shares what he or she loves to do with the students so they can experience it to. some of the things my teachers have shared are: writing poetry, doing art, playing music, dancing .
• A good teacher sometimes lets the kids choose the activities ( example: in gym, Shauna let us make the fit rotations. Not only did she allow them to chose the activities, they evaluated it as a group afterwards... asking 'what worked well and what didn't")
• Getting down to the kids level
• squat to talk
• sitting on chair
• Being creative, showing the students different ways to learn.
• A good teacher is very organized (uses whiteboard, computer, label books & bins, book apartments)
• He or she will switch up the classroom for a change. If something doesn't work the teacher shouldn't be afraid to change it:
• make different seating plans so everybody can have a chance to sit with somebody different
• change the layout of the room (carpet, bookshelves, etc.)
• Be supportive and encouraging especially when the kid is having trouble, don't let the kid give up.

This past Monday morning Gabby's cousin, Rowan, was born. He weighed 8 pounds 9 ounces. I wonder if we could think of 10 things that weigh around 8 pounds (besides baby Rowan!)...are up to the challenge? I could start:

1. a big chiuahua
2. 16 blood oranges & 8 bananas
3. 96 small ikea bowls
4. a fish from the Bay of Quinte
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.

I'll add to the list as comments come in. :)

And in case you were wondering what 8 pounds of cuteness looks like:
