"Treat people as if they were what they ought to be and you help them become what they are capable of becoming." -- Goethe

This quote is very significant to me because of where I teach. I think that we are all guilty of jumping the gun on some of students if they turn in work late or act up in class. Sometimes we don't consider how their day started or if something happened the night before. I know that I would need to take a step back at times and analyze some situations I have with my students.
