The teacher could mention something positive about what the students are wearing. Or if she sees a student drawing or expressing themselves in a not-so-typical way, she can compliment them. This will allow and instant connection between teacher and student. Maybe even allow the students to express themselves in the classroom would close a gap of separation between teachers and students.

This is because they feel accepted. However, we don't prepare them to face a world outside of the classroom. The world may not embrace all of their differences. We need to be realistic and teach them the art of code switching when coming across a not-so-friendly face in the real world.
