Building relationships at a Distance. Through the glass I find my heart, my purpose and motivation...... through the screen we share a message or two..... I think my heart might burst wide open....... #spotted@lowes #loudouncountypublicschools
Enjoyed Friday with former student Miriam Schneider who joined me on a to deliver welcome bags to students I had yet to meet! Masks on and mission complete! JOY#spotted@LOW
@thomascmurray “.......it’s that this work is about loving and caring about kids. Everything else, and I mean everything else, is secondary to that. It’s all about relationships.” Mark Weider
I really loved the first chapter and look forward to more. This Lowes Island Leopard thanks you!
Learning about dynamics and tempi with body percussion through Edvard Grieg’s “In The Hall of the Mountain King.” Things always get a little chaotic at the end, but that’s what makes it so fun.😜#spottedatLOW#elementarymusic@LowesIslandElem@BarbaraJDaly
@casas_jimmy Everyone has a chapter they don't read out loud. These experiences shape who we are. Building relationships, asking questions, holding judgment.....this is where we need to go....and not just with our students!
#ThoughtForTheDay Many have landed where they are today due to their past experiences. Hence, why it is important to take time to truly get to know the stories of our students & staff. There is a reason why kids/adults think/behave the way they do. Maybe learn why. #Culturize
Never, in the history of our nation, has empathy been so important. Thank you teachers for modeling & emphasizing the value and importance of this skill.
This school year choose to make an impact through your service and relationships you develop! Focus on building resilient students and teaching them it’s okay to struggle! Failure is motivating...success can be paralyzing! My focus in school this year! Love every kid! #reslilence
Never let the disillusioned, angry, burnt out folks extinguish your passionate love for the teaching profession. Yet, still love them because there is no doubt this profession takes a toll. We must constantly replenish & renew our hearts so we can teach another day. #TeacherLife
