Weeks ago, I went to visit my son Chase's teacher for math problems in the fifth-grade classroom. Afterward, we began to    121    about teaching children and we both agreed the most important thing is to shape little hearts to be kind and brave and    122    to a larger community. Not until then was I told a(n)    123    activity in her class.
Every Friday afternoon, she asks her students to write down four children with whom they want to    124    in the following week, and nominate (提名) one student to be the    125    brilliant classroom citizen. All the    126    votes are handed to her. After the students go home, she    127    those pieces of paper and studies them. She looks for patterns. "Who is not getting requested by anyone else? Who never gets    128    enough to be nominated?"    129    she is not looking for a new seating plan or “brilliant”citizens.    130   , she is seeking lonely children, who are struggling to    131    others.
It's like taking an X-ray of a    132    to see beneath the surface and into the hearts of students. As she said, the    133    comes out on those private sheets of paper. I was quite    134    and couldn't help asking, “How long have you been doing this?” “Every single Friday afternoon since Columbine,” she said.
This brilliant woman watched Columbine, knowing all outward violence begins as inner    135   . So she decided to fight violence early and often within her    136    What she is doing when    137    those lists is saving lives. She knows everything-even love, even belonging — has a    138   . She finds the patterns and    139    the codes (密码) of disconnection. Then she gets lonely kids the help they need. It's math to her. All is    140   — even math.
