Activities for week twelve 11/17 - 11/21 - 2014

The first step in teachability is learning to listen. Henry David Thoreau wrote, "It takes two to speak the truth - one to speak and one to hear." Being a good listener helps us to know people better, to learn what they have learned, and to show them that we value them as individuals. I value you as a student - come and talk to me, so I can know you better and help you more. As the old saying goes, "There's a reason you have one mouth but two ears." Please come and help me to use my ears. If your grade is not what you want I would definitely see me. Once again please check Aeries - do you have all your S.S.R. points?
