When I started teaching at school, I was sure I would change the world and touch children who needed love.
Although my students seemed to respond pretty well to my teaching, there was a small group of girls
who became more and more hostile (敵對(duì)的) towards me.
One day a fight happened in my classroom. Attempting to end it, I stepped in (居中調(diào)停) to face one of these hostile young women, who started hitting me in the face. Two boys jumped up to control the girl,
but the damage was done.
While the girl was suspended (暫時(shí)停學(xué)) for a few days, I was determined that she would not return
to my classroom. But I also prayed. I wanted to see all the students right there in my daily work at school.
On the top of my daily lesson-plan book, I wrote this statement, "To see all the children in my
classroom is always beautiful." With this view I could expect to heal any anger towards the girl in my heart.
After her suspension, she returned to my classroom. The student's young mother was trying to raise six children while her husband was away in the war. The mother and I agreed to work together to help her
oldest daughter.
There were no more incidents of anger the rest of the year. In fact, in the seven years I remained at that school, I taught all six of this family's children. When the youngest was in my class, the mother told me,
"Our family loves you. Every year one of my kids says, 'I hope I'm in her class!'"
The standard of seeing each of my students as a perfect one was the best teaching tool I had, and led to success.
