  1. Dear class,

    What's my awesome? I promise you I will try to make every day you spend in our classroom one filled with (at least a little) fun, excitement, challenge, wonder, and support. You deserve it. I am lucky to be your teacher.

    Sincerely,
    Mr. Pahl

    1. Dear class,
      I think this Kid President is giving us a pep talk to not play around just learn and be awesome. Just like Mr.Pahl does because he wants us to be determined.

  4. Dear Class,
    I really liked how kid-president taught us: we have to find out what awesome is in our life. I think awesome in my life is getting to be with my friends at school everyday

  5. Dear Mr. Pahl,
    If you would like to know what my awesome is its swimming. I think it is my awesome because it is fun to swim and you can have fun with your friends while you are doing it. And that is why swimming is my awesome. I would also like to know what is your awesome?

  8. Dear Mr. Pahl,
    I really like the pep talk video. It really encouraged me to do amazing thing like have fun with other people or make new friend. But why so many people are so dull? Maybe if you can show the video to other people so they might stop being dull any more.
    Sincerely, Dyna

  9. Dear Mr. Pahl, the Pep Talk episode was a very awesome episode because it showed that not only grownups can make good speeches, kids can, too. I loved the Kid President’s dances because they were very unique and super funny! Thank you for showing us this video.
    Sincerely, Fiona Cooper.

    1. Dear Oscar,
      I think you are right about having fun while learning. It just makes sense don,t you think? Because if you are not having fun then you are not learning and if you are not learning than you are not having fun.

    2. Dear Gavin you are so right about having fun while learning. If you don’t have fun while you learn then you won’t be learning at all. From, Julia

  11. Dear Mr. Pahl,
    I think we could learn from this kid and he has some good things to say but if he is going to compare stuff to Michal Jordan he should learn more about basket ball.

  13. Dear Room 12,

    Thank you for introducing me to Kid President. I think I may need to show this video to my 6th Grade Students as well as some of my family and friends. Who couldn’t use a pep talk? Right?

    I’m trying to think what my favorite part of this video clip is, but I like a lot of what this young man has to say. Here’s some of my favorite quotes that I am going to spend some time thinking about – especially how they relate to my life, and how I live it:

    “Stop being boring.”

    “I’m on your team, be on my team.”

    “You got air coming through your nose. You got a heartbeat. That means it is time to do something!”

    “We could make every day better for each other.”

    Enjoy your day Room 12 and choose that road to awesomeness whenever you can – even if it has some bumps, rocks and other obstacles along the way.

    From,
    Kate, Gavin’s Mom
