I Wish My Teacher Knew

https://twitter.com/hashtag/iwishmyteacherknew?src=hash

Denver teacher Kyle Schwartz wanted to understand her third-graders better, so she asked them to write a note, with the theme "I wish my teacher knew..."

She was stunned by their honesty and posted some of their notes on her Twitter account. Now #iwishmyteachernew has taken off on social media.

I'm sure my teaches are happier NOT knowing some of my thoughts about them when I was in school. Especially the part when I ask for help and have them lean over the desk to show me something.

Sneaking a peak, accidental brush or bump, etc.

Of course not. You are speaking hypothetically, right?

He is talented isn't he

Reading some of those kiddo's notes sure tugs on the heart strings... Like the one saying they didn't have any one to play with, that's a tear jerker The brutal honesty that kids can express... it can be powerful. I hope that this helps for the better for them. I feel for them, I can relate my childhood in some ways. I should have packed a lunch for this one, going on a feel's trip

Before I shed any tears, I'd want to know more about the situation. I know of a girl who is reasonably good looking. I try to sneak peeks at her peaks when possible. In all the time the wife has known her, she hasn't had a real date life. One would find that strange. She has a good job, no real issues, good looking, etc. When you get to know her better she is a jerk. So, the date thing is kinda self explanatory. Before I say "poor kid", lets look around to see. Maybe the kid has a personality many find distasteful. Maybe he has a bad BO. Maybe he isn't comfortable with social situations. Who knows?

How do you know she didn't know? Also was it only her chest or did it include what was "South of the Border"?

I wish my 4th grade teacher knew how much I wanted to have her use and abuse me in sexual ways. Always hung on every word she said and never seemed to grasp the material so I had to stay back for more extra help.

There is nothing so positive and life affirming that someone cannot find fault and denigrate...
