In “The Excellent 11,” Clark tells about some very truthful circumstances. Like the air band show, I can see how this type of event would generate an enthusiastic energy, increase teacher involvement, and change the school’s atmosphere. With Mrs. Bodler, Clark reveals how energetic teaching does not necessary get the job, but energetically focusing on the educational purposes can be rewarding. Clark’s focus on his students learning the presidents was a great idea, but the way he put them in groups with an assisting faculty member was another way of increasing the enthusiastic pay-off. I like the way he painted his first classroom with energy feeding colors. Environments and settings do influence emotions, and positive places leads to positive outcomes. Reaching out to unmotivated children can be difficult. Like Clark’s situation with Emanuel, making a difference in lives of fading students does not always happen. Clark and Nykal, is prime example of how the right strategies can make a difference in unmotivated children and draw them back into being interested in their schoolwork. Enthusiasm does have effect on others. If you are not enthusiastic about what you are teaching and an “I don’t want to be here” attitude shows through, students will scene that and develop the same attitude.
