Pause for a Cause

As teachers it is our job to educate, to impart knowledge, to facilitate growth academically, to help children excel and succeed. I also feel it is our duty to help children develop character, kindness, and understanding for those around them. I recently was forwarded a video clip about the difference one person can make in the lives of others. Although this is outside the realm of first grade lessons, I think it is a good reminder for us to be ever vigilant about how we teach and model for children how to treat others.

Please visit the The Difference and watch, share, like. I think the message hits home for many students today and also for educational professionals lets remember to always keep our eyes and hearts open to students. You never know what they are feeling and thinking.
