    Hello Sherida!

    I loved all of your quotes! We have one of Montessori's quotes in common. She was a very wise and inspiring woman. I absolutely agree with the quotes of Lilian Katz about cooperative learning, team work and curriculum.

My Farewell Experience "High-performance teams add tremendous value to organisations. Nurturing and developing them aids efficiency and maximises the effectiveness and flexibility of individuals and the organisation" (Crowe Associates (n.d.).  A few years back, I can recall that the institution where I worked previously was visited by a team of volunteers from Great Shape Inc. These individuals were teachers on an internship program. As a result, they came to share best practices and to learn from us. The duration with us was about a month.

As a result, a replacement was needed. We decided to use another female as a replacement for this position because this individual would only be on duty during the day when children are present. A member of the school's board was aware of the vacancy and told her husband, who applied for the position.
