Thank you so much. Respect for others is a dying thing with many of our youth. I try to instill life skills in my lessons as well as the content. So many of them don't get it at home. Respect, kindness, appreciation, etc. is something that many of them don't understand. I was so proud of my kids when they did it. I teach in a rural school. Many of these kids are very poor. It was a sacrifice to them to give a $1. I don't know if I am really making a difference or not. But I am sure not going to stop trying. Thanks for the kind words.
