23. “A kid at my daughter’s school couldn’t find their lost tooth, and I imagine they were very sad that the tooth fairy wouldn’t come. So the teacher wrote an official letter to excuse them.”
25. “Art teacher here. I had my 7 and 8-year-old students create monsters that were then “adopted” by local college artists and professors to be reimagined.”
Teachers are a blessing in disguise. It is kind of sad that so many people don’t respect their teachers and behave terribly with them, but that is a discussion for another day. Today, we are gathered here to cherish our teachers and professors for all the great things they have done for us other than just teaching us academics.
They are like our parents. No, they are our parents. I have noticed that teachers who treat their students like their children are the ones who have the best teaching record. Their students are the brightest. It is because you create an emotional connection, and the students enjoy listening to you, being in your company, and learning from you.
