ould never disappear.當(dāng)我媽媽兩年前以92歲高齡去世的時(shí)候,有好多好多的以前的學(xué)生來(lái)參加了她的葬禮,我哭了,不是因?yàn)樗ナ懒?,而是因?yàn)樗粝铝诉@些永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)消失的各種聯(lián)系。Can we stand to have more relationships? Absolutely. Will you like all your children? Of course not. And you know your toughest kids are never absent. (Laughter) Never. You won39。t like them all, and the tough ones show up for a reason. It39。s the connection. It39。s the relationships. And while you won39。t like them all, the key is, they can never, ever know it. So teachers bee great actors and great actresses, and we e to work when we don39。t feel like it, and we39。re listening to policy that doesn39。t make sense, and we teach anyway. We teach anyway, because that39。s what we do.我們真的可以有更多的關(guān)系嗎?當(dāng)然可以。 你會(huì)喜歡你所有的學(xué)生嗎?當(dāng)然不。 你也知道那些最難搞的孩子總是很難甩掉。(笑聲)永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)。你不會(huì)喜歡每一個(gè)人,然而難搞的那幾個(gè)的出現(xiàn)也是有理由的。這就是聯(lián)系,是關(guān)系。當(dāng)你不會(huì)喜歡他們每一個(gè)人的時(shí)候, 關(guān)鍵就是他們永遠(yuǎn)也不會(huì)知道這一點(diǎn)。所以老師們變成偉大的演員,我們得強(qiáng)迫自己工作,我們得聽(tīng)從那些毫無(wú)道理的政策, 我們還得上課。我們還得上課,因?yàn)檫@是我們的責(zé)任。Teaching and learning should bring joy. How powerful would our world be if we had kids who were not afraid to take risks, who were not afraid to think, and who had a champion? Every child deserves a champion, an adult who will never give up on them, who understands the power of connection, and insists that they bee the best that they can possibly be.教學(xué)和學(xué)習(xí)應(yīng)該是讓人愉快的事情。我們的世界會(huì)變得多么的強(qiáng)大 如果我們的孩子都不害怕接受挑戰(zhàn),不害怕思考,都贏得了一個(gè)冠軍? 每個(gè)孩子都可以成為一個(gè)冠軍,一個(gè)成年人要永遠(yuǎn)不放棄他們,懂得聯(lián)系的強(qiáng)大力量,堅(jiān)信他們可以變成那個(gè)最好的自己。Is this job tough? You betcha. Oh God, you betcha. But it is not impossible. We can do this. We39。re educators. We39。re born to make a difference.這個(gè)職業(yè)很艱巨不?當(dāng)然。上帝,毫無(wú)疑問(wèn)。但是這不是不可能的。我們可以的,因?yàn)槲覀兪墙逃摇N覀兲焐褪侵厮芩说?。Thank you so much.非常感謝大家。
