help in the calssroom (teaching students)

now my goal is to become a teacher someday, and i would prefer to teach little kids (2Nd-4Th grade)

i have some ideas to help keep the classroom fun,entertaining and still a great learning environment.

i know that at this age for kids it is the most critical part of their lifes, how they act latter in life, how they learn, and how they're attitude towards school is all affected in at this young age.

i was thinking tips and little activity's to keep the kids going would be fun Little games that i grew up with.

for example, does anyone remember "around the world" with the math flashcards?! haha i loved that game and it helped me so much with math, i think that if kids find a topic that they don't like at an early age, they wont like it later in life, so if u make games to keep them involved and enjoying the topic, they will take that attitude with them further in school.

also the mad minute?! we jsut did it in class last week and i dont know bout everyone else, but i enjoyed it!

i want to teach little kids, teach them and help them progress in life and i dont know, i feel that makeing the kids smile and like the classroom will hlep them much later in life.

if any1 has any ideas or tips for me, PLZ post them! i'll take any help i can get.haha

thanks =]
