TEACHERS

Since we're reading Nothing But The Truth, which involves a boy who doesn't get along with a teacher, I want you to consider teacher-student relationships you've had in the past. Have you had teachers that you just got along with whether or not you did well in their class? Have you had teachers whose personality just didn't mesh with yours? Without naming names, expound upon these ideas and thoughtfully consider how personality differences or similarities have affected you in your classes.


I guess that some people say that all teachers just suck, and that they are so rude. But some teachers are not like that. If you really think about it a teacher is just like a older best friend, they just teach you how to do stuff. I had this teacher in 6 grade and she was the best. We talked about everything and she was just the nicest lady I have ever met. It really made a difference in her class. Well the learning part. It helped me actually pay attention and listen to what she is saying, but to a teacher that I don't like I most of the time just put them off.

I think even when kids do bad in someones class with a teacher that likes them is fine. Kids who like there teachers usually try hard to do all of the stuff in there class. I did have a teacher in my kindergarten class that always got mad at me for wearing jewelry and our personalities just meshed so bad, and I always got in trouble for it. So I know for a fact that if you like a teacher and you get along with them you will like there class or at least just have a good relationship with the teacher.
