Some schools have already opened their doors and welcomed students back for the start of another school year. Others will commence classes the day after Labor Day. Whenever things get going there is always plenty of excitement. To be fair, there is also a measure of trepidation and uncertainty.
Given the above, the longer I observe what takes place in the classroom, the more I'm convinced that frills and gadgets (however you define them) just don't cut it. Teachers who are bright, hard working, full of passion/energy and those who sincerely care about the students make the enterprise of teaching and learning come to full bloom.
Quite simply, the very best teachers, the real professionals are the ones who engender and they are the ones who have much to do with helping students thrive. It remains this way as it has for many generations.
Great teachers make the start of another school year come alive.
