As a new teacher at Doull Primary School in Denver, Kyle Schwartz thought of a simple way to get to know her third graders, most of whom came from 1 families. She asked them to complete the 2 “I wish my teacher knew…" and share something about themselves.
Their 3answers gave the teacher a chance to understand her students' difficulties. "I wish my teacher knew I have no pencils to do my homework," 4 one child. "I wish my teacher knew sometimes my reading homework is not signed（签名）, because my mom is not 5 a lot,” wrote another. Some shared hope for the 6. " I wish my teacher knew that I want to go to college."
"Some notes are really heartbreaking," Schwartz tells ABC News. "I care 7 about each of my students and I don't want them to be poor forever." She explains, " I hoped to know 8I could better support them. So I 9 to let them tell me what I needed to know. That was why I created the fill-in-the-blank exercise."
10 the third graders were allowed to answer anonymously（匿名）, most wanted to include names. And some were even excited to read their notes out loud. 11 one shy girl who bravely said that she was lonely. "After she told the class, "I don't have friends to 12 me, I was worried what they would do." Schwartz tells Us Weekly. "However, I felt encouraged to see how much support the other kids offered 13. They invited her to play at break and sit with them at lunch. You see, 14 have an unusual ability to express empathy（同情）."
"The results have been 15," says Schwartz. "It speaks to the importance of giving people a voice and really listening to them."
