Children Full of Life

That was great, I have to admit I shed a few tears.

That teacher is very understanding of not just how we learn, but how we develop.

Thanks for posting this. If only there were more teachers like that.

I so wish American educators could see these techniques he uses. There is always hope that his lessons will stick with one child, and that child will be able to change their surroundings.

I know it’s idealistic but without vision the people perish. Kanamori is giving his children visions- visions of hope that someday we will all take care of each other.

This isn’t at all what my elementary schools are like, although I do notice how often expressing opinions and feelings in class in expected. After every speech or presentation, having two or three students respond to the speaker seems to be just as important as the speech itself!

Thanks for posting this… very interesting and even more touching.
And i think i envy those kids a little for the chance they have had there.
Thumbs up to Mr. Kanamori.

i remember watching this in my education class and by the end of the movie, at least half the class had tears in their eyes
