I agree with you Hoanne!   I often do realize - however - that I am constantly aiming to motivate my students.  I try to keeep them engaged through  participatory practices.  I  use  various questioning tactics to get the students to do their own brainstorming.  Motivation  - in a sense - is  getting the students to do something that they already want to do ( even when they do not raelize it).

I agree.  Some days it is easy to do the 3 M's and some days it is hard to be a positive 3' m's.
