@BeGladTraining @KatieToppel That gave me some great ideas. Thanks!

@KatieToppel **is there a larger resource you use to CREATE any or do you just make all of yours?

:)

[Soraya @RayaTeach]

@KatieToppel @KatieToppel I love these so much and I’ve created some of my own, inspired by yours! Is there a larger resource (book/website) you use with any or do you just make all of yours?

One of my teammates gave birth prematurely and found out exactly a week later that she has Hodgkin’s lymphoma. She is a kind, generous person who does not deserve what she is going through. Please consider donating and sharing! We love our Joy! ❤️

Earlier today my acupuncturist said:
“Fear is a motivator, not a place to live.”
I’ve been thinking about it nonstop ever since. Fear is a natural response that sparks action. You’re not supposed to sit in fear, but rather use it to move. Whew.

@burton_ell I love newcomers! However, I agree that this is surprisingly common.

Frog knocked at Toad’s door. “Toad, wake up, he cried. “Come out and see how wonderful the winter is!”

“I will not,” said Toad. “I am in my warm bed.”

If English learners only feel comfortable talking in small group "pull out" time, we need to question why.

What conditions are raising the affective filter in mainstream classrooms? How can we ensure that students-ALL students- feel safe to speak in any classroom?
