@Raquel_L_Rod@JennieChavez15@NoelLonghorns Ch5 Q2:Believing that I can generate a positive impact in many lives is what keeps me in the profession. To see students learning while having fun and to notice their growing is what brings me the greatest joy!

@JeanetteHuston9 @Raquel_L_Rod@JennieChavez15@NoelLonghorns Totally agree! It's incredible to see how well I can get to know them at the end of the year and how hard can be sometimes to say bye after all...
@Raquel_L_Rod@JennieChavez15@NoelLonghorns Ch5 Q3: building relationships: having phone conferences with parents to remind them kindly but firmly we appreciate their support to help their children reach their full potential; discipline students while telling them we have high expectations for them and we believe in them
@JennieChavez15 Ch4 Q2. Just by saying 'good morning' with a genuine smile, ask others how they are and be ready to listen /share something more personal.Letting others know how grateful you feel to have them around or how much you learnt from them
#noelculturize
@JennieChavez15 Ch 4 Q1. I do activities that make me feel good such as sports,yoga or hanging out with friends. I also like to reflect on my own about the situation and what can I do to make it better. Talking with colleges and listening to their suggestions also helps me.

@JennieChavez15 Ch 4 Q3. We can always be emphatetic and put ourselves in other's shoes. Also being aware that bad criticism to others doesn't help others neither us at all. Instead, we help each other by giving constructive feedback, we are all learning in the end..
#noelculturize
@JennieChavez15 Ch3/Q3 I like to give responsibilities to my students and also listen to their suggestions; and when I like something of another staff member I tell them
#noelculturize
@JennieChavez15 Ch.3/Q2 I include in my list the support from Noel staff: from administrators to custodians, Tina and Linda, Forester, Barry... Other teachers (specially Urien has been a great support). Being new this year, it was great to have them willing to help with a smile!
#noelculturize
@RachelGalvan15 @sabrinateague5@JennieChavez15 I totally agree! When I first started teaching I used to be afraid of making mistakes in front of the kids, but now I like to congratulate them when they catch some! :)
@JennieChavez15 Ch 3. Q 1. For me good leaders own core and innegociable values such as: self-discipline, respect, honesty, responsibility, compassion, enthusiasm, iniciative... and help others build theirs with their example. I try to show such values during my lessons with kids.

@Raquel_L_Rod@JennieChavez15 Ch2 Q1: in those moments I remind myself why I started this road, why I decided to be an educator. It also helps me remember that there are things beyond my control that I need to accept and distinguish from the ones I can change.Focus onthe things you can change!

@Raquel_L_Rod@JennieChavez15 Ch2 Q3:Our team tries to compensate this lack of estimulation from home by dedicating a lot of time in the writing promts,reading for pleasure everyday at least 20 min, modeling reading, crosscurricular reading in social and science,etc
#noelculturize
@Raquel_L_Rod@JennieChavez15 Ch2 Q3: I think some of the factors include a lack of reading/writing stimulation from home and a very focused goal towards the success of standardized STAAR tests that may prevent students from learning in a more natural and creative way.
#noelculturize
@Raquel_L_Rod@JennieChavez15 Ch2 Q2: I like to listen to them and let them know that they can count on me. The first approach would be for me to try to understand their why of their attitude or disengagement.
