In the midst of the coronavirus pandemic and the meltdown of our economy, it’s imperative that we re-examine some of the foundations of American society, understand why they are failing us, and fight for a fairer and more just nation.

@APTaraKidwell @DirectorOpl @DianaGulotta @AmieWeinberg @Mrs_Treichler @LucasDeLores Q3: I am building a track record of empathy. It is important that students particularly know that they have my ear and not just my eyes. Having an ear to hear student's frustrations is what I want to build on. #culturize

@APTaraKidwell @DirectorOpl @DianaGulotta @AmieWeinberg @Mrs_Treichler @LucasDeLores Q2: I am a first year teacher in the honeymoon stage. I am aware of the burnout and feeling of hopelessness some teachers feel. I plan to model my career after the teachers who made a difference in my life, despite the odds.

@APTaraKidwell @DirectorOpl @DianaGulotta @AmieWeinberg @Mrs_Treichler @LucasDeLores A1: Words are powerful. Naysayers and those who are critical of. every. little. thing. can put a damper on the best efforts. Though it is often difficult to not jump on the wagon, I choose to see as much good as possible and highlight it. #CULTERIZE

@APTaraKidwell @DirectorOpl @DianaGulotta @AmieWeinberg @Mrs_Treichler @LucasDeLores #culterize #intro I am Caryn Crawford, a middle school language arts teacher. My success involves student connection. I have been struggling to understand the offputting behavior of one of my students but one honest conversation changed it all!!

@APTaraKidwell @ToddErickson15 @TheColon_s @AndrewBuchheit @LucasDeLores @PrincipalAbney @DirectorOpl Q3/A3 #Culturize I notice that staff, students and administrators at GHMS act as a family and support and lift each other up. When I was working late on Friday night, building maintenance staff invited me to eat dinner with them. It was refreshing.

@APTaraKidwell @ToddErickson15 @TheColon_s @AndrewBuchheit @LucasDeLores @PrincipalAbney @DirectorOpl Q2/Q1 #Culturize One way I stay positive is looking at the little girl from my past and realizing that if she could make it through middle school, so can I! Having someone at school to talk to helps as well.

@APTaraKidwell @ToddErickson15 @TheColon_s @AndrewBuchheit @LucasDeLores @PrincipalAbney @DirectorOpl Q1/A1 - When things are not going well at school, I think positive thoughts; particularly about how things often are not what they seem on the surface. I focus on the good that I know.

[Caryn Crawford @1SuperTeacher]

#Culturize. Q3/A3 (continued) - I can support my Husky Family by communicating with the right people when I am feeling overwhelmed as a new teacher. I can also help by realizing my own strengths and sharing those with others. Teamwork is a give and take relationship!

[Caryn Crawford @1SuperTeacher]

@APTaraKidwell @DirectorOpl @TheColon_s @AndrewBuchheit @LucasDeLores #Culturize Q3/A3. I am proud to be a new member of the GHMS Husky family! Fellow teachers and staff help me tremendously by sharing tips and ideas for working with our diverse population of students. They also share food!!

@APTaraKidwell @DirectorOpl @TheColon_s @AndrewBuchheit @LucasDeLores #Culturize. Q2/A2 - Leaders facilitate trust in others. Others trust that they can try without being criticized by me. I nurture an environment where students can be vulnerable. Their trust is manifested by their participation in academic dialogue.

[Caryn Crawford @1SuperTeacher]

@APTaraKidwell @DirectorOpl @TheColon_s @AndrewBuchheit @LucasDeLores #Culturize Q1/A1 - Leadership means modeling behavior that encourages teamwork. One of the ways I try to be a leader is "sharing" copier time between classes. I am mindful of others' needs and will limit my use of the copier so that others can use it.

@APTaraKidwell @DirectorOpl @TheColon_s @AndrewBuchheit @LucasDeLores Caryn Crawford - LA 7th Grade @ GHMS - Ready to #Culturize! One success from the week has been the most positive response and connection with a new student who was otherwise despondent. He comes to me each day to show me his work!

@APTaraKidwell @PrincipalAbney @DirectorOpl @rita_goss @hampton_ap Q3:A3. The inspirations for greatness lie in the every day acts of kindness as Casas noted in his book. #culterize
