@mspearsonin3rd Show up and love kids unconditionally. Get to know them. Build accurate and precise stories of each of them. Learn about their families. Always makes sure that the way you speak about them supports their full human potential. Do this, and nothing will get in your way.
Good morning! Today be the first to say hello. Be the first to offer a compliment, lend a helping hand, or listen. Be the first to show empathy and see the beauty in the day. Today make it a point to lead and be the first to make it a brighter day! Have an awesome day!👊
Showing empathy, compassion and patience to students doesn't mean you are soft and weak.
In fact, far from it.
It means you are strong enough to care about who they are today and who they’ll become tomorrow.
What if we created a school environment where we handled every staff member and student with care? Do you think it would make a significant difference in the culture? If so, then let's commit to making this happen starting today. #HandleWithCareEDU#Culturize
Treat people right. Appreciate them, encourage them, support them and make them feel like they matter (because they do). Do this at home, at work, at school, at the store, etc. Do this with people you know and people you don't. Try your best every day to make someone else's day.
Make it a habit to notice what others are doing right.
Show your appreciation.
I read somewhere that appreciation is more valuable and motivating than tangible rewards.
Everyone needs to know they’re making a difference. What you do matters!
I love the fact that every day we go to work, we can make a difference. Maybe not a big difference... but lots of little differences. And those add up.
We can support a colleague, connect with a kid, make someone smile... or their burden a little lighter. That can be tomorrow!
