I think one of the most important roles a teacher plays is knowledge giver. Teachers are able to mold the minds of their students, not only in academics, but in pyschosocial ways as well. Teachers help young students learn how to make and develop friendships with peers and how to become more independent.
Through role playing scenarios, teachers can show students, especially young students, how to effectively communicate with each other. Learning good communication skills early on is so important to ones' ability to function in various situations in the future. Good communication skills are necessary for healthy friendships and for becoming independent. Teachers also share how to eat healthy and take care of oneself (proper hygiene), especially in kindergarten and first grade. This knowledge increases a child's independence.
Sharing knowledge with others is vital to the development of the world we live in today. Teachers have that wonderful responsibility of sharing what they have learned with the next generation.
