Thank you for producing this great video. I'm a retired NON educator who stumbled here and watched because my grandsons were kid 2s. When they were in elementary school, I remember desperately trying to get someone, anyone, to give them just a little bit of genuine attention. I suppose it's just not easy in a public school setting, especially inner city, teachers are stretched so thin. I often think of how that could have helped them. They are now minimally performing young adults. Pls don't stop educating the educators!

Thank you for this! Your advice is always so timely. I'm about halfway through my student teaching and your videos have helped me feel so much more comfortable in the classroom. Love from Texas!

I just want to say that since I watched your video a few years ago and you talked about using stickers for high school students, I decided to try. It is an awesome thing. My students all the way up to 12th grade love getting stickers and seeing what new stickers I have. Thank you so much for this suggestion because I would have never thought it would work for high school.

Aww you're so cute. Thank you for the warm, welcoming, gushy advice. We need support systems to form Tetris levels of compact synergy.

As a former Kid #2, you sound like an awesome teacher.

[@cindyriehm7411]

Interested in stuff is GREAT!

[@imagineitqll]

Seconding all these, my kid #2’s really connect with silent affirmations; if teachers have access to a messaging system like Clever as well, I also like to message them words of encouragement during independent work time

[@nshahid6397]

Yes the clever messages or gradebook messages are great. Stamps too

[@cindyriehm7411]

Ohhhh. The seat/side ofcthe bed.. aqesome!! Yes i want my space!

[@cindyriehm7411]

This is one of your best videos ive seen!!!

[@eleanorjones26407]

I got into education to help Kid 2 (I was one) but find myself gravitating my time to the other two in my practicum and while subbing. Thank you Reynolds!!!

[@btpuppy2]

This is back to the best kind of videos you do! All about your personal advice and stories from your classroom. Thanks!!

Massive facts here. It’s hard to help them, especially when the trouble kids take so much time and effort to manage. I fully believe they are casualties of the poor state of education in America today. Education today prizes how kids do on paper, but not how they are actually doing. This is why we have schools with a 90% graduation rate, but the kids don’t know anything upon leaving. The teachers aren’t quite at fault, but they do compound the issue. To solve this problem, we need to bring education back to basics. The modern SEL push allows students to skate on by because the emphasis is on student behavior and comfort, which is why the problem students take up so much time and energy. The teacher is expected to get to the bottom of the kids’ psychological issues and provide therapy while also teaching a class at the same time and ensuring everyone understood what was going on.

There's also kid #4. The socially-incompetent kid who struggles to make friends and no one wants in groups. I got into teaching to help the kid 4s because I was one (and still am to some degree).

[@coolteacherproject]

Great video! Thanks for sharing and I agree that we don’t talk enought about kid 2.

[@Saxysaboy77]

Thanks. I’ve been needing a lot of help with one of my classes. I appreciate your videos.

I have watched your videos on and off for years and this timely one just entered my feed. I am three months into a new job at a bilingual school in Viet Nam and there are a lot of 'kid 2s'. Indeed you described me to a tee as a 'kid 2' when I was at school. Some teacher acknowledgement would have gone a long way back then. I have been teaching ESL for nearly four years, and I am increasingly becoming more irritated by 'kid 3' behaviour. I know we are supposed to be patient and forgiving but when the crazy in the classroom gets under your skin, what methods have worked for you over the years? Matt

[@connorpeppermint8635]

Still a kid 2. The learning never stops

[@stephaniekeller6435]

Funny you mention stickers and half stickers. Pre-covid, kids liked when I cut smiley face stickers in half or even in thirds. This for handwriting legibility and complete sentence answers. The handwriting improved and kids joked with each other about them. They bring the student 2's into the class culture and builld community. I need to do that again.
