@AimeeTRES@AimeeTRES A3: I think free writing is beneficial. We did that at the beginning of the year but only one time. I would like to pick that back up and write back and forth to them.

@AimeeTRES@AimeeTRES A2: There are great books in our library with books about athletes and other notable people the kids are interested in. #TRESbesthope
@AimeeTRES Giving caught-chas, praising them individually or in front of others, writing good notes on their work, cheering for them at recess, and send good emails home
@AimeeTRES Giving individual, positive attention can help the students who lack confidence in academics and misbehave because of it. I try to send as many if not more positive emails home than negative ones.
@AimeeTRES@ManuelScott I loved how there were a lot of different people on the slideshow from the Black History program last week. I also love the novels that we read on 5th grade. The kids get to know thr authors and where they came from to get where they are.
@AimeeTRES A1: A few examples of what I teach my students are: I teach them how they need to talk to authority, how to respond to other students or adults, how to handle frustration and irritation, and how to handle conflict. #tresbesthope
@AimeeTRES A2: When I taught my students the vocabulary word, "morph", I used an example from the movie "Inside Out" and how the characters morphed into 2d shapes when they went through one of the buildings. That helped them understand the word. #tresbesthope
@AimeeTRES A3: Teachers and students can be in different generations. What I liked when I was in school is completely different from what my students like now. Students need to have something that is relevant to them in order for them to be engaged. #tresbesthope
