Reflect 31: Day 4

Craig Kemp @mrkempnz Singapore (originally New Zealand)

Today’s Reflect31 question comes to you all the way from Singapore via Craig Kemp; @mrkempnz

He asks us a simple question but one that will be a fantastic share.

“What is your favorite educational quote and why? Inspire us!”

We don’t know any teachers who aren’t up for a good quote from time to time. They can be uplifting and motivational just when we need them. Consider a time when you were a little down, possibly struggling to find classroom magic and needed a shot of motivation, was there a quote that helped inspire you?

We found a couple of links to share that will both explain why we are inspired by quotes and help you find more quotes to love and inspire others.

Remember to share using #Reflect31 and if you want to get really fancy we challenge you to make an image with your quote using something like https://about.canva.com/ or https://spark.adobe.com/about/post.
