Talk about motivation!


This is an example of the posters that were spread all over the South Range Elementary School's walls. Although they may seem like just posters - even annoyingly cheerful ones for an incredulous Finn - their influence can be felt on the school's mood. Things will work out if you have faith in them and when you have positive attitude the work is almost done. The support and positive feedback we as students got from the teachers at the school made us try even harder and do our best!

In Finland we success in PISA surveys, but student's don't like being in school. In my opinion it's just because of the attitude and expectations that school's supposed to be boring and tiring. There could be use for some positiveness in Finland too, maybe that's the thing that could make the school more enjoyable. Think about combining this wonderful attitude and praised Finnish school system - nothing could beat it!
