“Yes, by bringing politics into your family discussions, you run the risk of raising kids who will later challenge you.

But that’s not because they are rejecting you or politics; it’s because you’ve raised them to be political thinkers too.”

#notspecialneeds #humanneeds let’s really consider exceptionality through a visionary strength based approach. Changing our language and thinking to look for assets to reach and teach all of our students. @SavannaFlakes Reminds me of @PowerOnPeople #CEESA2019

Everyone experiences difficult #emotions -- including sadness, anger and frustration. #Teens need to know that there's nothing wrong with them if they feel sad or angry inside @dfkris https://t.co/STDNLuOFhC #edchat #parenting #SEL #EQ #mschat #hschat

@finleyt So many important prompts to self-reflect and get to know our authentic selves, values and personal strengths!

[Steve Messier @messier_steve]

While helping students understand and regulate their #emotions we must also ensure that we are not diminishing or invalidating the importance of their emotions. All are important and all are deeply personal. We don't remind kids of this enough. #SEL #edchat #kidsdeserveit #bestEd

The ‘whole child’ approach to education is “anchored in the latest brain science & developmental knowledge showing that social & emotional development are inextricably linked with academic learning.” -@LDH_ed & @YaleCSC’s James Comer via @GOVERNING
