"Finding your vocation in life is discovering the place"...where your deep gladness and the world's deep hunger meet."(Pg.3)

-This quote was very meaningful to me because it pointed out something very important. It basically tells us how the love and passion we have for something meets up with the grind of working hard and making money leads to finding your strong passion for a particular career.

-This quote might not only change my mind but many other people as well. It makes a lot of senses to work with a career you love because while your grinding and making money and bettering your life your also impacting and changing others life.

"I think teaching is one of those fields that you just can't really "get" until you're inside." (Pg.4)

-This was meaningful to me because it shows that teaching isn't just something that comes easy. It shows us that teachers actually have a very important role and it shows that teaching doesn't just come right away it takes time and experience to actually know what is going on.

-This quote changed my actions and thoughts because as a student right now we don't understand the hard work our teachers actually have to do to teach us. A lot of people just think that teachers read off books and teach the student but don't actually understand how much work they have to actually put in to helping us understand the work.

" People who have very high extrinsic goals for wealth are more likely to attain wealth, but they are still unhappy." (Pg.10-11)

-
This quote was meaningful to me because it shows people that wealth isn't always the root of happiness it should be a goal but it shouldn't be the only goal. We should set standards on making money with doing something we love and enjoy to do.
-This quote has changed my mind on certain things because it proves to me that you have to set a goal on working with something you love and not just focus on the money you make.

"Different ways of learning."

# data[].attributes.body
"Educators frequently try to shape their instruction to match a student's learning style."(Pg.34)

- This quote was meaningful for me as a individual because I myself learn best visually and not everybody learns the same. So teachers expand learning styles that way students enhance their brain development.

-This Quote only added on to my thoughts and actions it makes me want to add on to learning styles and how to make students feel more comfortable and open to learning in different styles than in just the one their best at.

"The theory of multiple intelligences goes a long way in explaining why the quality of an individual's performance may vary greatly in different activities, rather than reflect a single standard of performance as indicated by an IQ score. "(pg.28)

- This quote was meaningful to me as a individual because it reflects on how I feel about test and how it reflects on my intelligences. I felt this quote on a high level because test shouldn't reflect on how smart a student is in a subject. Test shouldn't be the only thing we are reflected on we should be able to do different things to prove our intelligence.

-This quote has impacted the way I will think as a teacher because I have experienced myself how test are. I am a terrible test taker and a great precent of grades are reflected on test. As a student that is very stressful and it feels very unfair because there should be different methods of being able to prove our intelligence in a subject than just taking test. As a student I know how stressful test are and as a teacher I will make sure to show my student that a test isn't the only thing they have to worry about in ordering to get good grades. I feel that test have a bad impact on students because when they fail it makes them think they are slow and have less knowledge than others in the classroom.

"The World is getting too dangerous. We have to train kids not just to be smart but to be wise."(pg.38)

- This quote was very meaningful to me because the words were very deep. It reminded me of the saying I heard a lot while growing up around people in my community. The saying was you have to be "street smart and book smart" they would say this to the young people around and tell them stay in school remember that the world we live in is no good. So seeing this quote was something that was very similar to that saying our young people should always focus and be wise.

- This quote only added on to my mind I would contuine to follow this thought and make sure that as the generation goes on our young people of today know that it's important to be WISE and not just smart. Being wise comes along way because you will know peoples every move as well.

"seeing is believing" (pg.53)

-This quote is meaningful because it's telling us that actions speak louder than words. And it's actually a fact people tend to believe things only when they see it for themselves.

-This quote was meaningful to me because it shows the diversity in culture, race and ethnic. This is a great thing because it allows people to grow with one another and allows us to learn so many different and new things.

"whereas the business world may suggest "time is money", for educators, time is learning. As one teacher points out, Time is the currency of teaching." (Pg.86)

- This quote was meaningful to me because it shows that some teachers are actually passionate about their jobs they don't just do it for the money. It shows that the teachers actually care if the student is learning or not. There is some people who just work for the money nothing more.

-This quote is what impacts people like who are very passionate for what they care for. As a teacher I will always show interest in my classroom and make my classroom comfortable for the children, making sure they aren't scared to ask questions.

"Teachers find themselves grading the brighter students on the quality of their work, and the weaker ones on their "effort" which is a big problem (especially with parents!)." (Pg.90)

-This quote was meaningful and very powerful to me because I agree with this 100% ! Throughout my 12 years in school even in college some teachers just off the back see when a student is struggling and assumes that the student is going to just be like that all year.

This quote has impacted the way I think because it's not a good thing to have children less than the others all because they learn different. Or in a different timing.

"I feel pressure from my parents and teachers to do well in school. But when I do, boys won't ask me to the school dance and even my girlfriends call me a 'nerd.' So now I talk less in class and don't study as much. The teasing hurts, so it's easier to hide being smart."    (Pg.93)

"Boys can't take music class without being called a fag. So I hide my musical talents, like playing Mozart on the keyboard." (Pg.93)

-This quote was meaningful to me because as growing up I see a lot of this going on. And is still going on children feel as they need to hide the real them just so that thy wont get bullied by society,

"Location greatly influenced educational opportunities. (Pg.116)

-This quote was meaningful because sometimes I believe that the location and area of schools is what gives children opportunities. Children develop on what they see and hear so if the area is decent where they don't see nor hear negative things.

-This quote impacted the way I think about different areas sometimes I feel that it doesn't mean anything because it all depends if the child is a follower or a leader for her/himself, I feel that all depends on how the child acts.

"Public Schools should help us identify and nurture the talents in poor as well as wealthy children, and schools should ameliorate social disharmony."(Pg.119)

-This quote was meaningful because I agree that schools should identify the importance and talents that the lower class. We have low class children who have hidden talents but are never able to show them off.

-This impacted my thoughts on being a teacher I would love to have a moment out of the day to share hidden talents and show that no matter what economic level you're in you are still talented and stay in this world.

-This was a meaningful quote because it shows how money isn't the only thing that is important. In fact it shows how it doesn't improve anything in education it can't the students nor the teachers. Money can only invest and make things look nice but the real deal is the education.

" A number of charter schools have extended their school day and their school year as one tangible way to improve student performance. Some public schools are now following this trend, but it is difficult to determine what will happen when longer schooldays and years collide with shrinking educational budgets." ( Pg.195)

- This quote was something that caught my attention because i went to a charter school myself and my school days were very long but sometimes I felt as I wasn't really learning a lot but it didn't matter because the charter school always looked good.

-This quote was meaningful to me because not a lot of teachers are able to say some things like this. There are some teachers who make the students fear to get something wrong in class because the teacher ends up saying something that hurts a students feeling with out you even knowing. Again this is the saying "you have to fail a bunch of times until you get it."

-This quote didn't change my mind to anything I do believe that its okay to fail to get better. I can personally say I live with this quote no matter where I go.

-This quote was meaningful to me because as a student sometimes we all feel as we don't have a saying in anything. Sometimes students just want to be able to share their thoughts and feelings and are shut down. But I know teachers go through the same thing since their adults they have more of a voice than a student.

-This quote has impacted me as a teacher I am going to make my classroom and make sure all the students are welcome and I am going to make sure that my classroom is a talk free zone where the students feel comfortable with me an can count on me when they need to talk.
