Teaching is about “reaching clear to the heart of another human being and using everything you’ve got to make a difference.” A teacher reflects on the emotional labor of teaching.

@ELmagazine @ASCD Take time every day to be with the kids. Helps with perspective and reminds me of what is most important. It’s about the students.

This article makes a lot of good points. As I read I tried to think of ways I already follow the author's advice and how I can better integrate justice into my everyday teaching. Teaching Kindness Isn’t Enough https://t.co/lM3ROIN7Qd @Tolerance_org

Q2/A2 I have shared with the educators I work with that #burnout often occurs when you are working in isolation or in silos. The load is lighter and the journey is more pleasant when you are walking together towards a common vision. #ELMagChat

@teacher2teacher I put thank you notes in a special bag. Whenever I need a pick me up, there they are. Sometimes, just looking at the bag is enough to change my mood and remind me of #thewhy

"It doesn't cost a fortune. It is simply techniques and strategies that teachers can incorporate in their classrooms the following day, and the payoff is so great," @PatriceBain1 told @cultofpedagogy https://t.co/c0um9984FQ #edchat #neuroscience #teaching
