What Do Teachers Make?

Based on the prompt from Mrs. Kallas which you can view here, I believe that teachers make a world of difference to many individual students. 


After reading the poem, What Teachers Make by Taylor Mali, my opinion is that....

  • Teachers make students work their best, to prove to them that they are capable of doing many things they could not even imagine. Without a teacher that pushes students to their very best, students would never yearn to learn, they would slack off, just trying what they know they can accomplish. 

  • On the other hand, teachers also make students dream, they introduce them to new ideas which cause them to consider many opportunities, and hope for things they would have never even known about before.
  • Teachers also make something impossible, possible. By encouraging students to strive forward and not give up, teachers open up a student's mind to try and explore new things.

This next assignment I got from Kallas's blog, which you can view here.
