Fourth-grade teacher Tori Nelson allowed one of her students to shave her head in the schoolyard, after bullies(仗势欺人者) teased him about his own buzz cut. Ms. Nelson got the idea after noticing that Matthew Finney, a shy boy from her homeroom at Winlock Miller Elementary School in Washington State, was standing outside his classroom crying and wearing a winter hat.
Ms. Nelson could see the back of his neck had been shaved, and since Matthew usually had very thick curly brown hair, she realized that he'd had a haircut over the weekend. She asked him what was wrong, and he said he'd gotten a buzz cut for the summer. But this morning, a fifth grader on the bus made fun of him, and he didn't want to come to class and get laughed at by other kids. Ms. Nelson tried to convince Matthew to come inside, but since school rules banned kids from wearing hats indoors he refused-explaining that he was afraid of showing his haircut to the other children in case they also made fun of him.
"Finally I said, ' If you take your hat off and come to class, I'll let you give me a buzz cut too, " Ms. Nelson told Yahoo Parenting. "I figured it's just hair, and mine is already short anyway. I might as well get it shorter in time for the warm weather.
Matthew excitedly took her up on the offer, and Ms Nelson and another teacher gathered all the fourth graders together during break time. A school employee brought in scissors, which Matthew used to the cheers of his classmates, excitedly watching as their teacher's hair fell away onto the ground in the schoolyard.
"It was a lot of fun for the kids, and it helped Matthew feel better about himself. " said Ms Nelson. " You have to do what it takes to reach children. Teaching isn't just about reading and writing: it's about self-worth and accepting differences.
