It only requires small efforts to impact how a child views themself, and this little boy’s mom knows that.
Teacher’s Responsibility
Preschool teachers have a crucial role to play in establishing little children’s values and self-awareness.
Meet Teacher Amanda
Amanda Cox is a hardworking teacher who is hands-on in guiding and teaching her students.
No More Pencils
One day, while she was teaching, Amanda realized that she was running low on pencils so she asked her class if they had any pencils to spare.
A Little Boy Raised His Hand
One boy had a lot of pencils, and he was willing to share them but he said he needed to have them back at the end of the day.
Amanda Promised
Amanda assured the little boy that he would get the pencils back after class so he handed her the pencils and the teacher started sharpening them.
She Noticed Something
While Amanda was sharpening one of the pencils, she noticed some red writing on it that said, “You are so talented.”
Different Messages
It piqued Amanda’s interest so she asked the boy if she could take a look at his other pencils and that’s when she saw that all of them had different encouraging messages written on them like, “You are perfect,” “You are phenomenal,” and “You are so talented.”
He Loves His Pencils
Clearly, the boy’s mom knew the positive impact her little messages would make on her son, and the little boy obviously loved his pencils, which was probably why he had asked for them back at the end of the class.
