Originally posted by Northern Girl I admire teachers a lot. It's a noble profession. You can really make a difference.
See what I mean. Got this email this morning coincidentally:
One day a teacher asked her students to list the names of the other

> Then she told them to think of the nicest thing they could say about
> each of their classmates and write it down.
>
> It took the remainder of the class period to finish their assignment,
> and as the students left the room, each one handed in the papers.
>
> That Saturday, the teacher wrote down the name of each student on a
> separate sheet of paper, and listed what everyone else had said about
> that individual.
>
> On Monday she gave each student his or her list. Before long, the
> entire class was smiling. "Really?" she heard whispered. "I never knew

Absolutely.
Good teachers should remember what was good and what was bad about THEIR teachers.
