I LOVE when teachers have youthful spirits. It give more clout with the students.

The joy in that room was electric. Let's bring joy and laughter back. 💞

One of the best things a teacher can do is to inspire their students. This is exactly what this art teacher did in his own medium. I might not be a dancer (OK, I'm terrible), but this was awesome to watch. I know the kids appreciated this and love you!

Why did I just tear up thinking about how great teachers used to be , this teacher is awesome and will be able to connect with these kids for years to come because he inspires on common ground

The atmosphere, the audience, the background, this is just refreshing to watch.

the 80's-90's was honestly so hype

Man, it's really cool that he did that performance for little kids. He gave it everything he had, and kilt it.

That was such amazing artistry! Every beat, every era, every time frame, you caught on to each one of them through movement and art. So fluid, you badass!

Any vid that can make you laugh, cry, dance, cheer, laugh, cuss, pull a muscle, and rewind is doing its job well. Mr. Thompson is a legend.

This is the first time that I smiled and laughed for 5 minutes straight in a long time. Thank you for that.

Having fun with music, dancing and enthusiasm is all it takes to make children happy while in school and kudos to the teacher who knew to provide that. A happy environment produces happier children , as well a happier student

WOW. The energy put into this, and he makes it look effortless!

Imagine having him as your art teacher as a kid,that would’ve been a fun and inspirational art class.

From one art teacher to another,,,,,,, I love this!!!!

Thank you being one that was born in the mid 70s I grew up during the 80s and graduated in 94! This was basically my life of music all the way to my 20s! I use to break when I was a young buck! I never left the house without my cardboard and big ass DD BoomBox! Kelly Turbo and Ozone were Gods to us back then! You did a great job kid thanks for bringing me down memory lane💯
