we took a field trip to davis high to learn about ocean animals. the kids got to hold different star fish, pet baby sharks and watch the shark be fed brine shrimp. they were mesmerized by it all. and to top it off they all got a shark's tooth.
i got to see again why i teach.
i got to see discovery.
i got to see such an excitement for learning that
it filled the room. they had questions and were
so eager to share. you could feel it.
i think as adults we often lose that hunger to learn.
not that we don't learn. maybe since we know so
much more about the world and how it works that we really don't really discover much any more.
maybe we've become callused.
maybe we've forgotten the magic of learning.
whatever the reason
i'm grateful that these 6 year olds help me feel the
energy that comes from
pure
delightful
discovery.
