@SSTeachesStuff @HendricksMiddle I love you so much! You are my world.

A3: in my experience it has been to handle conflict. I’m not sure why honestly. It’s like we as teachers need training on that one! Lol! I think teaching is such a personal profession as well so people get very passionate. #forsythpln

[Melodi Sterner @ShanklesRMS]

A2: I Think for us it would be to hold check ins. This is where we see if what we are doing is working and discuss what needs to change, etc. #forsythpln

[Melodi Sterner @ShanklesRMS]

A1: I think I like the determine each expertise. I find with kids and adults, when they realize they have something important to add to the group, they feel a sense of purpose. That’s when they go for it! They feel valued! #forsythpln

@OMSKristin You said it much better!

[Melodi Sterner @ShanklesRMS]

Melodi Sterner, Riverwatch. I guess cooperation means to participate and bring something to the table. In collaboration you do that plus take in what others bring to the table and help it to form your ideas and opinions. #forsythpln

@SSTeachesStuff Finally....

[Melodi Sterner @ShanklesRMS]

@MrsBayerLSMS Me!

[Melodi Sterner @ShanklesRMS]

@SkogsNation @SSTeachesStuff I’m in!

[Melodi Sterner @ShanklesRMS]

@OMSKristin Also giving myself rewards at specific goal markers helps....food is the BEST! Lol!

[Melodi Sterner @ShanklesRMS]

A4: I think for me it is setting a routine and committing to that routine each day to establish a habit. Also, setting alarms to keep me accountable for not missing the time. Telling a friend or spouse your plan and asking them to check in and perhaps give motivation. #forsythpln

[Melodi Sterner @ShanklesRMS]

A5: this happens to me more times than I wanted to admit. I am hard on myself. We start focusing on negatives and “what if’s” and forget our “why”. Then, we see no reason to continue and quit, and walk away. It hurts is mentally. #forsythpln

[Melodi Sterner @ShanklesRMS]

@BrysonBridget @SSTeachesStuff introduced me!

[Melodi Sterner @ShanklesRMS]

@mrsrad23 Oh I am not great at all. These are hopes and dreams for me! Lol! I feel ya!

[Melodi Sterner @ShanklesRMS]

@OMSKristin I’m the first one to do that! Lol!

[Melodi Sterner @ShanklesRMS]

A3: If we don’t start with preparing for that action, then we will quickly find ourselves in a pickle. We do it in the classroom as well. If we didn’t prepare for our class time, it would be a free-for-all and no learning would take place. It would be chaos. #forsythpln

[Melodi Sterner @ShanklesRMS]

@SSTeachesStuff Good one!

[Melodi Sterner @ShanklesRMS]

A2: for me, honestly, it’s the A. I make my resolutions too big many times and disappoint myself when I don’t quite reach it. I guess it is good to reach for the stars, but also realizing what you CAN achieve is best. We all need the encouragement of meeting goals. #forsythpln

[Melodi Sterner @ShanklesRMS]

@OMSKristin It so works! Especially when it gets hard and you want to give up!

[Melodi Sterner @ShanklesRMS]

A1: examining and knowing the why behind the what gives you purpose. It’s a good thing with mindfulness meditation as well. Knowing your purpose for what you are doing gives you a purpose and a motivation to keep going. #forsythpln
