You know... fifth grade boys and all. ;) <br />Thing is, they know you love 'em whether you say it or not. It's something that so easy to see from a great teacher, and great teachers love their kiddos. <br />I've been out of the classroom for nearly 9 years now. I sent my kiddos birthday cards in the mail for years. Now, they've found me on facebook. Most of them are in their early twenties now and needing every bit of encouragement they can get as they try to make it in a very tough place (some of them with very little support). <br />Great teachers send a little bit of their heart off with their students and that may just be more important than the little bit of knowledge we send with them. :)Fatimahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10441655211819602032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5489135.post-40092165392249307592010-10-31T19:05:10.818-04:002010-10-31T19:05:10.818-04:00My oldest is doing her student teaching in the 4th...My oldest is doing her student teaching in the 4th grade.

I, too, had the good fortune to be paired with an amazing partner my first two years in kindergarten, and it was worth ten times more than every dollar and every hour I spent on my credential courses. Every teacher should be so lucky! Now, someday, we get to try and pay it forward...Crystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09921429377878920036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5489135.post-4080572708258640772010-10-30T08:45:45.981-04:002010-10-30T08:45:45.981-04:00That was a really thought provoking post.

I wouldn't know what to say either. <br /><br />The other day, I heard a teacher say he used to work with someone who, at the end of every day, hugged each of her middle school students. Middle school! When you bond like that, kids respond. I guess you just can be scared to accept it.Theresa Milsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03477761307315565259noreply@blogger.com
