[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just want to share a story about a middle school student whose mother was very ill and the student was having a hard time concentrating in class. I had no knowledge of the mother's illness (I had taken over the class in the middle of he year). One day the student asked me to take her out in the hall to talk. Then she told me about her mother and asked if I would hug her because her own mother had not been able to do that in a long time. Her mom was dying of a degenerative disease. I don't really quite know how I went back into the class and taught the rest of the way through, but I did. Just be kind to all of your students and try to know what they are experiencing outside of your classroom. I can tell you are a great teacher because you are asking and caring about this student. [/quote] My god. Thank you for doing this for your student! [/quote] This made me cry. So sad.[/quote]
