Once upon a time, there was a Pretty Good Teacher.
Her students and her peers recognized that she was a Pretty Good Teacher. Humble as she was, though, she also felt that she was a Pretty Good Teacher, and she was proud to be one.
Still, like all good teachers, she wanted to be an even better teacher.
She spoke with colleagues and they gave her many helpful tips (although she suspected that some of them were holding back a little).
She talked to her students, and their insights were often quite interesting and thought-provoking.
She went to her principal and he gave her some good advice. (Really, he did.)
She read journals and books, joined a ListServ, visited web pages, signed up for courses, attended workshops and conferences, and generally sought knowledge wherever she could find it. She was very motivated.
Little by little, she began to try new strategies and techniques in her classroom. For example:
She began to take multiple intelligences into account in her lesson plans.
She started using cooperative learning in her classroom.
She integrated more project-based learning into her instruction.
She even started using a data projector.
Sometimes, it was a bit overwhelming. Exhausting, in fact. Not everything worked out the way she intended.

ut she persevered, because she wanted her students to learn as much as possible.
Still, she felt that something was missing. She wanted to do things with her students that she had never been able to do before. Things that were fun, things that were exciting, things that students actually enjoyed doing.

Mostly, things that made her students WANT to learn.
But she couldn't say what those things were.
