When I first started teaching in room 5, I knew that there were a few children who would be taken off guard by my personality.
Some children think that teachers are just supposed to act like teachers.
They shouldn't tell jokes, they shouldn't hug you, and they certainly shouldn't ask you to sing in front o f your peers. I assumed that Shane was one of these children. He was always very quiet and reserved, and I would often see him just staring at me without any viable expressions on his face. I thought to myself that he would probably be student that didn't relate to me very well, and possibly wouldn't even like me all that much. I could not have been more wrong.
