@missmulrooney I’ve done a few mini lessons in having a growth mindset and the other day when a student accidentally called me “mom” another student immediately saw she was embarrassed and before I can say anything goes “it’s okay, we all make mistakes. Ms. T understands!” It was awesome.
@abbygov Wear a pin that says “hi I like goats. Do you like goats?”
Someone will read it and say “oh my gosh I do like goats!” And then you can exchange goat stories and find other shared joy. You’re welcome.
“Ms. T. Is the titanic real?” “I saw it on the news” “it wasn’t on the news my grandpa watches the news all the time and he didn’t hear about it” Me: class we are trying to do math right now!
