and I keep it restricted
Good then
I'm honest with my administration
the first exercise I did with a classroom of undocumented immigrants was I wrote on the board "Is America great?"
that prompted a huge discussion to show the kids, I want their opinions expressed regardless of my views on them
it worked well
and yes, the wording was intentional
I get it
So what happened
I'm guessing most said not good enough
we discussed how some were scared of Trump and how they think he is unfair
others showed actually liking him
it was surreal
but productive
children learned to not apologize for their beliefs
You opened their minds but also created a divide lol
That's good though
interestingly, the kids work well together
Even when they disagree?
it opened a dialogue that honestly helped them move pass their differences
God damn
debate is common in my classes
That's better than what we have in today's adults
I just have one rule, respect each other, no name calling
well its because adults think they can't be told what to do
You ever had fights?
kids don't have that issue
nope
not in my class
I guess you are intimidating to even bullies
one kid tried starting one, i told him if he wanted to fight I would be his huckleberry
he backed down
What was it over?
turns out that supposedly was wrong to do
the kid was just looking to get into trouble
he wasn't happy at the school
No real reason?
Doesn't be your huckleberry mean you have his back?
my school is strict
Most schools are
