Setting the Hook

Its tough being a teacher in the Canadian and World Studies section of school. You are given a usually rough set of Grade Nines who are limited to the choice in classes, but instead given a layout for their first two years of school.

Its all about the hook my Geography teacher had told us. Essentially, a Geography teacher has one guaranteed round with the Grade Nine class. In that time, they must plant that seed; make those connections, generate that interest in this discipline and how it encompasses and relates to so many different things in a students world.

You just have to make sure you have that passion in you.
