Quotes:

"We can create curiosity by presenting students with puzzling phenomena, surprising facts, challenges to accepted opinions, appeals to imagination, playful situations with manipulatives, connections among seemingly disparate concepts, moral dilemmas, and personal dramas when facing struggle." - Rick Wormeli  

"Work to create positive anxiety in the classroom.  We want students so concerned that they will be called upon to say something intelligent that they remain on their toes mentally." - Rick Wormeli
