Imagine growing up with teachers like this, the world would be a different place

[amgooder]

Principals should also do this with teachers each morning cause we miss our mommies too!

This teacher is amazing! So real! So transparent! So loving and caring. Not a lot of teachers like this these days! She reminded me of my mother! My mother was a teacher for many years and she loved her kiddos! She always gave her self to the children ❤

Imagine if parents actually took responsibility for their kids. We wouldn't have emotional therapy instead of teaching

im a freshman student, yet sometimes i wish our teachers asked us this weekly.

I wish my teachers did this for me. Most don't really seem to give two hoots about their students' mental wellbeing.

And than people wonder why kids are so obsessed with their feelings.

I do this every class with my upper graders, but I’m not on the news. 😵‍💫

God I hated this kind of tripe when I was little

Watching this video ! This is what I have to say! About my teachers! What a waist of life !

This is nice but I know admin would ask “what standard is this attached to?” If I could do this every day I would but in reality I would be told to “move on and teach the content”. Cute video!
