I had a frustrating day with my elementary kids. I feel like I'm not bad as an English teacher, but sometimes I am befuddled by trying to teach kids other things, like how to be kind to each other.
Several incidents recently have underscored how cruel kids can be, and I am at an utter loss as to how to teach kindness – the one thing I am certain of is that getting angry and yelling and scolding is NOT the way… because, in fact, that is exactly the type of unkindness it is purported to prevent.
Anyway. Shrug.
