Denver educator Kyle Schwartz is Swipepeering into the inner lives of her third-grade students — by asking them to write down what they wish she knew.
Schwartz's new book, I Wish My Teacher Knew, compiles those often heartbreaking responses in an effort to help readers understand the obstacles students face outside the classroom.

Now, Schwartz hopes it will illuminate schools -- and parents -- as they prepare for the school year. "I really want families to know how intentional teachers are about creating a sense of community and creating relationships with kids,” Schwartz told the New York Times.
Not all educators are pleased with the book, saying it's irresponsible for young students' personal information to be published in a volume available for purchase.
Other teachers are praising the volume. Some are even repeating Schwartz's exercise in their own classrooms.
