Look around us. Most of us here are Passionate about teaching, but how many
teachers at your schools are just doing their jobs? How many look at
teaching as just a job, rather than a vocation? Too many kids are only just
reading, or just getting by, or doing because of a grade or incentive. Part
of teaching is passing our passion for learning to others. Passion for
doing their best. Passion for being their best. Passion for living and
loving life. Reading is just a doorway to discovering their passions.
