I was walking downstairs yesterday with some of my students and one began to whistle. We stopped, listened and clapped. I then showed them my way of whistling using my cupped hands. They were enthralled! I began to teach them this new skill on the steps and one commented on how hard it was. Perfect example of the value of practice! I simply said, "Keep practising and you'll be able to do it!" We continued down the stairs to "practice" our reading. My students were happy and motivated.
Couldn't find a picture of roses but thought this wisteria from Oia Santorini inspiring.
