Living your Dream

Dan Yaccarino
Charlie Escher


 In the past two weeks, we met two inspirational men who shared the same message. Even though these men have extremely different careers, they both spent time when they were young thinking about what they love doing and what they were interested in. Mr. Escher and Mr. Yaccarino studied and worked hard to make their passion a career. Dan Yacarrino suggested we take time to close our eyes and think about the thing we most love to do, what makes us happiest. Please reflect on your interests. What do you love to do? What do you hope you can do every day in your work when you grow up?
Dan Yaccarino uses his passion of drawing every day as an illustrator, animator and art teacher!

Charlie Escher uses his passion for action, space and planes every day as a Navy pilot!

  1. I like to read, write, go to school, write Mrs. Kottler's Scholars, play with my baby brother, and have fun with my family. When I grow up I would like to be a children's book writer because I really enjoy to read and write. What do you want to be when you grow up? What do you enjoy?

  5. I love to play softball and be with younger kids. Since I like those things, I would probably be a softball coach for little kids or I could be a teacher like Mrs. Kottler! I hope I can but maybe I'll change my mind. What will your career be and why?
