Ashley, thank you so much for sharing this TED talk. It was
a very powerful video for me. A way to step back and re-think my place in this
world we are in. It was a great opportunity for your students to do something
like this in Columbia. It could
help them understand empathy. Using this way or some other way for them to
reflect on what others are going through by stepping outside of their own
problems and reconnecting with the world.
Good luck on finding ways for your students to reconnect to
each other and for you, as the teacher, finding ways to grow with your
students.
Emily
I think you have found the answer to why it’s hard for you
and why you love reading. It’s all about finding that one simple answer that
can help your student and just being there for them. A teacher needs to take
the time to solve each problem as they arise. With each of our students we need
to take that time to understand that each student is different and solving these
problems can take time. Emily you are in the growing years as a teacher. Your
students are helping you to find yourself. Just endure this journey and listen to
what is being said and find your own way in the process.
Hi Shirley, remember to reflect on your comments to others, what inspired you? :) Just a few sentences are fine.
