It's fun to work with kids. :D
I like working with toddlers, I am not a big fan of older children, though.

I'm bad at talking to people, but I'm worse at talking to small children.
I once saw a spiritual person say that if an infant or toddler is staring at you, they might be looking at your aura.

Ooh.
That is really interesting, Amane! I never saw it that way, but I think that's really cool.
I've been really getting into witchy things lately, studying up on runes, spells, teas and crystals.
I want to learn more about auras and such too!

This year I will be having first, second, and third graders. The second and third graders I had last year. And I know the three first graders I'm getting.

And smart. Oh they are smart. I bought these though provoking questions for kids and that's how I'm going to start each class. Well maybe not the first one since I'll have to introduce the rules and some changes to things.

That sounds like it's going to be really fun!
Children are so smart, I think I remember reading once that a teacher kept poetry from children who were in third grade, then compared it to that of an eighth grader, then that of a highschooler...
The poetry from the third graders was more thought provoking because the children didn't have the vocabulary to over-word things or make it seem bigger than it was, they just wrote things really simply and that was the most beautiful of it all. :D

When looking at poetry written by young children, I always see it as on par for their age, and then there's that one that has to be a prank because there's no way a kid has the writing skills or thought processes to craft that masterpiece.

Even when I was in the age group of these young kids writing poetry and stories and beautiful creative things, I would always see that ONE that was like… no. A kid didn't write that. How can anyone as young as me be able to think like that?
I myself was uncreative and turned in blank pages when we were assigned to write in class. Those ones where they give you a few sentences and tell you to continue it were the worst, oh my God. Couldn't! Do! It!
DID IT JUST THUNDER‽ I'm offended. I'm reporting the sky.

Aw, man, Amane!
I LOVED to write as a kid! I used to sit in my room and write on my computer for hours and hours. I didn't even have internet on my computer, but I used to stay up there, put on a good CD and write. :D
It was amazing!

I was extremely slow and perfectionist in art class. I was lucky if I finished a project. And when I did, it was not… it wasn't… when you look at my old art projects, you can tell I don't have the mind for freeform creativity. It's full of uniform patterns, symmetry, and empty white spaces where I couldn't think of anything to fill it. I made my patterns using familiar shapes, like foods I liked to eat and objects I drew a lot when they had us keep journals. I did not think to do abstract or backgrounds.
I excelled at spelling tests, grammar, and math. Subjects where you memorize rules. I balled at spelling tests every time.
Meanwhile, I feel like I'm living a fraction of a life when I can't make creative work.

Understandable.
We're all wired differently, it's okay.
I absolutely love creative things because I like being creative, but I suck at memorizing rules and math and analysis and numbers... All of that stuff just confuses me!

I feel like everyone is more creative than me. There's something they think to do that I don't. I wish I liked being a scientiststs. Then my talent would match my interests.
