Suddenly, without any introductions, Malak took the fifth grade to talk about the "Zero Water Day" Cape Town, South Africa, which was scheduled for June last year, and some solutions were postponed for the year Current.

The "zero water" day means that they will have to close water taps in homes and distribute daily water rations to the population, due to severe drought and severe water shortages caused by changing climatic conditions.

The 11-year-old has banned herself from using too much water, considering solutions to the global water crisis, following political news and when South Africa's president, who promises to solve the problem, will change.

In the sixth grade, a king was more interested in her hairstyle, movies and tourist cities, the most attractive in the world.

This discrepancy in interests and perhaps diversity, was behind him grade teacher every time.

In the fifth grade, the teacher was from South Africa, so she told the students of her class that she was interested in her country's issues without knowing it, and perhaps deliberately.

In the sixth grade, the beautiful Pakistani teacher was interested in beauty, so she turned her attention and entertainment to her student.

A full year of study in which a student sits in front of his teacher, studying the academic curriculum and drinking a lifestyle and ideas that he may hear for the first time, the student may take him to the house to see his parents' opinions on the subject and perhaps store it in his head to summon it later. These ideas remain a basic component of the pupil's character without realizing it.

Criteria for teacher selection
How does a teacher's character affect student behavior? Is it dangerous to require certain criteria for the selection of teachers?

Amal Taya, the director of one of the kindergartens in Doha, said in a statement to Al-Jazeera Net that she follows a number of fixed criteria when selecting her teachers. For example, the teacher must carry the mother's feelings towards the children and their needs and accept their mistakes wisely and follow the agreed methods of evaluating behavior , Have a balanced personality and have sufficient awareness of her educational role, have a true belief free from innovations and superstitions, and be a non-fanatic personality and accept guidance, advice and correction and respond to development.

The child was influenced by the personality of the teacher
As for the reason behind the children's reincarnation of their teachers in their early years and the reflection of their behavior on a large scale, the academy, former teacher and media researcher Fatima Berri explained that attachment between schoolchildren and teachers occurs at the primary level rather than in the later (middle or secondary) For one reason, the first and most important is that the image of the teacher (or teacher at a lower rate) is similar to the image of the mother (or father) to form a state of reassurance alternative and spontaneous feeling of the teacher towards the teacher.

The student goes to school and is full of the saying that the teacher is like the mother. She carries through the social criteria the characterization of the "nanny", which increases the chances of their obvious impact on the personality of some students, according to researcher Fatima Berri.

Young children feel a lot of psychological comfort if the teacher presents the child with a deprivation, such as emotion, interest, solicitation, encouragement and praise.

According to behavioral theories in psychology, the child receives, stores and is influenced by his cognitive and mental composition in the years between the ages of three and eight years.

Between these two years, the period of planting is appropriate, so that the student's personality is like the thirsty land that absorbs everything that is provided to it.

After the primary stage, the attachment to the teacher declines because the child becomes self-seeking and self-seeking.

"One of the best-known rules in the world of education is that the child likes to study the material that her teacher loves, and vice versa," Berry said.
