35、had only one choice: to find a way. that meant taking as few as one class each semester. the hardest part was feeling guilty about the time i spent away from the boys. they often wanted me to stay home with them. there certainly were times i wanted to quit, but i knew i should set an example for the

42、ith each other in the classroom. i have a rule no laptop, ipads, phones, etc. when students were told my rule in advance of the class, some of them were not happy.        most students assume that my reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past

50、will change his teaching plan soon d. values technology-free dialogues in his classd shay asked, "do you think they'll let me play?" shay's father knew that most of the boys would not want someone like shay on their team, but the father also understood that if his son, mentally and

51、 physically disabled, were allowed to play, it would give him a much-needed sense of belonging and some confidence. shay's father approached one of the boys on the field and asked if shay could play, not expecting much. the boy looked around and said, "we're losing by six runs (分) and t

57、made it to first base, wide-eyed and shocked. everyone shouted, 'run to second!' catching his breath, shay awkwardly ran towards second. by the time shay rounded towards second base, the smallest guy on their team, who had a chance to be the hero for his team for the first time, could have t

58、hrown the ball to the second baseman, but he understood the pitcher's intentions and he too intentionally threw the ball high and far over the third baseman's head. all were screaming, "shay, shay, shay, all the way shay.' shay reached third base when one opposing player ran to help

59、 him and shouted, "shay, run to third." as shay rounded third, all were on their feet, crying, "shay, run home!" shay ran to home, stepped on the home base and was cheered as the hero who won the game for his team. that day, the boys from both teams helped bring a piece of true l
