Relational pedagogy as a framework is essential for student success. Building relationships with my Ss and fostering a high Academic Self-concept are a priority
#remotelearning has reminded me of the parable of the prodigal son (Luke 15:11-32). There have been Ss who have been MIA for most of the quarter and after many attempts when I do reach them, I am overjoyed and welcome them with open arms.

@DenaSimmons I shared your article on my Facebook page to show the community that as an educator in their schools I will be doing better to be actively antiracist. I will commit to seeking out the hard conversations, so that I can create more equitable learning spaces. #changeagent
I wholeheartedly believe that this is true. It is often what wakes me in the middle of the night. Leaves me exhausted from not prep periods, but I wouldn't have it any other way.

#ThoughtForTheDay No student is unreachable. Every student is teachable. No student wants to fail. It’s up to us to do whatever it takes to ensure they prevail. Be a champion for all kids. #Culturize
@DenaSimmons urges districts and educators to confront racism by fostering an antiracist culture. She identifies 4 classroom practices that I will implement immediately .
