RITA PIERSON: EVERY KIDS NEEDS A CHAMPION

An inspirational teacher can change the world, one student at a time.  One of my favorite teaching TED Talks is Rita Pierson: Every kid needs a champion.  When I sit and listen to Ms. Pierson, I want to run back into the classroom.  She speaks with such passion but also with so much compassion.  She truly understands that forming relationships is the most important aspect of every classroom.
