Nurturing the whole child means honoring sense of self, a sense of place, and a sense of others.

When you have a difficult, disrespectful, and defiant student, my biggest tip for you... is to have lots of conversations with them when they are not in trouble.

These conversations are where you build rapport... and that rapport makes future confrontations less likely.

I made this ~one hour video about how to provide small group literacy instruction for young children using a videoconferencing platform (@zoom_us). With help from four gr8 coaches, I walk through a phonics lesson and a content knowledge + infotext lesson.

Managing the current situation can create anxiety. There are unknowns and the media are creating dramatic headlines that do not always help. Here are some tips to help manage these challenges.

Shoutout to all the educators who view hallway duty, bus duty, lunch duty, and any other duty over the course of the day, as an opportunity to greet, speak with, and acknowledge students in a non-academic space.

There's so much opportunity during these moments. #edchat

A successful reading night in the books. #Reading I hope I pulled off Camilla Cream! #Ralstonrocks

I frequently hear teachers talk about kids not doing “the work.” The work the work the work. Stop caring about the work... Care only about what they learn from the work. I’ve seen many kids doing tons of work & learning zero from it. #edchat #tlap #KidsDeserveIt #thatonekid

This is a good Friday chuckle! Bob Ross was at school! 🤣 #ralstonrocks #PBIS

Educators , there is no room for closed doors, jealousy or competition between teachers or schools. All of our students deserve the best education possible. This means sharing, collaboration and building each other up, both within a school and between schools.

Do you assign hw? Why or why not?

Please RT, lets include as many voices & viewpoints as possible. I’ll share the results.

Fellow school leaders, please take care of yourself. No one else in education knows what our role is like - often the loneliest position in education. Reach out to colleagues. Take time for family & outside interests. Our work is important but not as important as family & health.

[Dr. Andy Jacks @_AndyJacks]

What kind of attitude are you bringing into work today?! Every day can be the best day if you make it so. Be careful, because either way, it's contagious and spreads to others. You can't fake a good attitude. You have to own it and believe it yourself for it to be true!

[Dr. Phil Echols @PhilEchols]

Educators - As you return to your classrooms and see your Ss for the first time since break, they will know how you feel about them and your job by the tone of your voice and look on your face. That tone and look will set the course for the second half of year. Welcome back 😇

In school, children with #trauma are more likely to have trouble regulating their emotions, focusing, and interacting with peers and adults in a positive way @TishJennings @dfkris https://t.co/eYA20gI9eL #edchat #traumainformed #cpchat #teaching
