The Most Important Lesson


I was just notified by email that TeacherTube marked my most recent video upload, “Day of Silence,” as private. This means that the video won't be available for general public.

On April 18th, our school participated in the Day of Silence, and I am proud that many of our students had patience to be silent for the whole school day. I have no doubt that these students would never bully, harass or discriminate another person. The Day of Silence is not only about LGBT rights, it’s a statement against any form of discrimination based on race, color, religion, political belief, sexual orientation, national, social or ethnic origin. This is one of the most important lessons we could teach our students today.

Day of Silence

The Day of Silence is an annual event held to commemorate and protest anti-LGBT bullying, harassment and discrimination in schools. Visit http://www.dayofsilence.org/

My 8th grade students designed posters. Watch a movie on TeacherTube. Music by Antony and the Johnsons “Hope There's Someone.”
