Because trust is the start of any relationship. so a relationship, of any kind, starts with trust.

Team building, have people get to know each other personally

# data[].attributes.body
Even though I would not want to break her rules In the classroom, I would probably judge others because of their race.

# data[].attributes.body
Team building exercises. This could lead so some scenarios that could make people trust others even though they wouldn't normally.

# data[].attributes.body
By using journals to express their feelings and explain why they feel the way they do its a safe havean.

# data[].attributes.body
Because if there is trust then you could speak out freely without being judged.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the teacher should be respectful and just be aware of the situation.

# data[].attributes.body
my grandmother Venus Daniels because she always told me that there will always be a way .

# data[].attributes.body
Mix everyone together and have them team build on something.

# data[].attributes.body
A good start to break the racial barriers would be By taking the time to get to know eachother.

# data[].attributes.body
if you have trust you and a teacher can speak more to each other

# data[].attributes.body
I think its important to put everyone together because they can  be
comfortable around each other, it bulids a better environment.

# data[].attributes.body
because you can let your emotions and thoughts out in your journal and let go of what is holding you back (feelings).

# data[].attributes.body
By never giving up on them and expressing my intentions as a teacher.

# data[].attributes.body
So they can see eye to eye on where each other is coming from and how they can relate.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that a student-teacher relationship is important because for some kids, teachers may be the only responsible and trustworthy adults in their life.

# data[].attributes.body
a relationship without trust is not one at all.

# data[].attributes.body
talking to each other

# data[].attributes.body
The lack of trust can only lead to violence and accusations. Trust leads to students going out of their way to ask for help from the teacher.

# data[].attributes.body
My parents and close friends push me the hardest. also my coaches help me work hard as well.

# data[].attributes.body
Ms. Gruwell must gain the respect of her students. while making the classroom a fun and engaging environment.

# data[].attributes.body
because its all they've known its what they have grown up living with

# data[].attributes.body
have them get to know one another on a deeper level out of the school mindset

# data[].attributes.body
All of my family and  Calculus teacher.

# data[].attributes.body
As a teacher you wanna be there for your students at all cause. Building a relationship with the student is the 1st step.

# data[].attributes.body
Without trust, there wouldn´t be any comfortable situations on who to turn to If a student wanted some sort of help at school.

# data[].attributes.body
Everyone acknowledge everyone as equal as if that was them in another body and race

# data[].attributes.body
Teachers need to know they have your attention.

# data[].attributes.body
my friends because they are just like family to me and they listen and don´t judge the way i feel.

# data[].attributes.body
if theres no trust then there is no motivation for the students success in the future ad the teacher is not doing a good job

# data[].attributes.body
If I was the teacher/her and I was going to work at that school then I wouldn´t want to just watch and let things keep going on how the kids would just hit each other and be abused by others, I would report It to someone who would be able to take care of the situation. I would have earned the trust of the students by talking with them and just try learning about them one by one.

# data[].attributes.body
The life lesson to have respect for one another.

# data[].attributes.body
I wouldn't give up on them no matter the circumstance. You gotta dig deeper till you reach the goal.

# data[].attributes.body
tell them theres more in life then gangs drugs and dropping out steer your mind away from all your troubles outside of school when you step in the classroom i would want those kids to know i got them and i WILL help them

# data[].attributes.body
start gaining trust and show them that you can make school an okay place to be.

# data[].attributes.body
It helps students by expressing the feelings and thoughts that they don't feel comfortable talking to someone about.

# data[].attributes.body
the teacher becomes a respectable authority figure to the kids because she understands their situations but also doesn't let them cloud the expectations she has for the students.

# data[].attributes.body
Trust plays an important role in a teacher student relationship bc the student can come to the teacher about anything

# data[].attributes.body
I would have tried to break through the students emotionally to create that bond to help them trust me.

# data[].attributes.body
Understand the students perspective and situation

# data[].attributes.body
In there journal, they write how they feel.

# data[].attributes.body
Let them explain what they want out of this class how is it gonna benefit them? Also for Ms.Gruwell how would she make a difference for what they're requesting.

# data[].attributes.body
because they know what they are adapted to and their violence is all they know.

# data[].attributes.body
she gives them journals to put all their feelings in

# data[].attributes.body
my people always got me and i always got them

# data[].attributes.body
she let kids bully her and make her feel like she is nothing.

# data[].attributes.body
i would get to know the students individually and try to understand them on a deeper level.

# data[].attributes.body
because you would be able to communicate more and know each other better

# data[].attributes.body
her dad is giving her crap for what she is doing and where she is working

# data[].attributes.body
if i were mrs.gruwell i would have been firm but also understanding with the rules and lesson plans and i would also try my best to relate to the students.

# data[].attributes.body
Her dad does not approve of her being a teacher, and much prefers her to run a business with him.

# data[].attributes.body
The violence and peer pressure doesn't let them focus on their abilities to become a better independent.

# data[].attributes.body
Learn about them, talk to them

# data[].attributes.body
because her husband doesnt want her working there eventually hell tell her to leave then her father is just being....himself WACK

# data[].attributes.body
Her father wants her to do something more major, but she wants to help the youth. The strain between them can cause her to have a more difficult time both at home and at work.

# data[].attributes.body
It's risking to much because her husband doesn't like the fact she's putting her all in the students and paying more attention towards them then her partner.

# data[].attributes.body
By expressing all their emotions in a journal that nobody else reads.

# data[].attributes.body
Because she wants to be that one different teacher and be a better role model to her students.

# data[].attributes.body
no im sure some maybe did but not all

# data[].attributes.body
yes , because they dont care about school.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, I have friends who I am close to and consider older/younger sisters or brothers.

# data[].attributes.body
I would say my big brother because he makes sure every choice i make helps me in a positive way

# data[].attributes.body
to set a good example for them and look presentable so they actually take her serious

# data[].attributes.body
just because you living like that you can always change it.

# data[].attributes.body
because they cant understand why she loves these kids sooo much and she actually is the best teacher and has the ability to control the students and they cant

# data[].attributes.body
It helps the students speak their mind and express their feelings without having the fear of someone making fun of you.

# data[].attributes.body
She wants to be a more professional kind of teacher that cares about her students. She wants to look they way she wants her students to act, more professional.

# data[].attributes.body
she wants to be taken serious and seen as a teacher and not someone who doesn't care

# data[].attributes.body
Her class becomes a safe zone to her students by having them express or answering what they´re going through In their life by doing this one simple thing that helps her understand them.

# data[].attributes.body
Come up with fun and creative activities that could bring one another together by getting to know about each other.

# data[].attributes.body
yes but N/A

# data[].attributes.body
I wouldn't doubt that they did not . her message could have affected them for a short period of time, but not for life.

# data[].attributes.body
Because all the violence and gang related stuff in their area causes them to not care about their education.

# data[].attributes.body
own worst enemy because they are the ones who stop their own happiness

# data[].attributes.body
Not at all, there are just some teachers who have favorites and that should change

# data[].attributes.body
ehhh honestly myself i am my biggest motivator i push myself when i dont even want to work get up anything thats just me.

# data[].attributes.body
Once you build a strong bond with someone you realize how hard it is not seeing them just like family, so yes. The students became more comfortable of there peers.

# data[].attributes.body
She wants to represent professionalism.

# data[].attributes.body
^^^what ahmad said

# data[].attributes.body
their lives outside are horrible they have no one motivating them they're surrounded by hatred....etc

# data[].attributes.body
the fact that they have to watch out for themselves bc they could be jumped or shot at

# data[].attributes.body
because she brought them together by having them express their issues in a creative way and now they all relate to eachother and know one anothers stories. yes like 3 people and those are my bestfriends thats all.

# data[].attributes.body
It became safe because they took it serious and started to express their feelings freely without judgment.

# data[].attributes.body
yes, i call my close friends parents mom and dad, they are family.

# data[].attributes.body
Some of the students would use it throughout their life other for a short period of time and move on.

# data[].attributes.body
Not really but some teachers have favorites which doesn't bother me.

# data[].attributes.body
The life lesson is just because some students don't wanna learn don't give on them each student has something unique.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like If the students didn´t have her by their side then they would have went to the wrong path.

# data[].attributes.body
I would make them do team building activities.

# data[].attributes.body
Because communication is vital when it comes to success

# data[].attributes.body
i feel like sharing experiences would bring them closer.

# data[].attributes.body
If you show care and affection for your students then you will eventually earn their trust.

# data[].attributes.body
if i was the teacher i would share my experiences with them.

# data[].attributes.body
Trust is important because no relationship can thrive or grow without a foundation of trust. It would be like turning in an assignment and not believing it would be graded
