"In working with infants and all the way through
adolescents, I find each stage of development fascinating; my favorite group
would be the group that I am spending with at that moment in time. All children
are such sponges, you can learn so much from each child even if you are only
spending a few minutes with that child. I firmly believe “If it’s not in the
hand, it’s not in the mind.” It is exciting to watch that “light bulb” go on in
a child’s face when they are learning something new or tackling a difficult
task such as cutting with scissors. There is never a dull moment in a
classroom. We are all learning new things every day and learning is
fun!!" Linda Clark...
