On this episode of Teaching Matters, Marks Heidi Morris discusses an important topic that often gets overlooked: good students and good kids. There are exponential amounts of information out there on how to handle bad students, but how can teachers temper the enthusiasm of good students? Marks expounds on the value of good students, and more importantly good kids, in your classroom and how you can help all students benefit from these kids and succeed. 
“I am enormously grateful for the good kids, who greet me when they come in the room, who engage in a little pre-class conversation, who help me set a model of respect and cheerfulness and camaraderie that other students can emulate when they don’t have it in within them inherently to present those behaviors.”
