2. MEET ME
MYSTERY BAG
• There are brown paper bags at
every table.
• Working with your table mates, go
through the clues in each bag and
make an educated guess as to
what the clues mean.
• If your table makes a correct guess,
everyone at the table gets a prize.
• You have 10 minutes to solve the
mystery of Who I Am?
Feel free to use this with your students during
the first days of school. It’s a great activity for
the students to get to know each other and
you! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGsgu0s0LDE

6. MY PHILOSOPHY ON TEACHING &
LEARNING
• “The function of education is to
teach one to think intensively
and to think critically.
Intelligence plus character – that
is the goal of true education.”
- Martin Luther King, Jr.
• We must teach our students to think for
themselves, both in-depth, critically, and
responsibly if we want to prepare them for
tomorrow.
• “Education is the passport to
the future, for tomorrow
belongs to those who prepare
for it today.”
- Malcolm X
