Rick Lavoie

I had the amazing opportunity to attend a free workshop by Rick Lavoie on Thursday, March 5th. For those of you in education he wrote the movie documentary called FAT City. Those of you not in education, the man is a genius and a huge advocate for students with special needs. I was star struck watching him speak to us (from the second row) about motivating our students who lack internal motivation. I also stayed for the second seminar for parents, and I got a lot of great information about how to approach parents. I left that night rejuvenated and ready to teach my ass off! I am determined to be the best teacher a kid could ask for.
