When a student is late to class it’s frustrating & disruptive.
But, imagine how the dynamic would shift in your classroom if instead of greeting the #student with frustration & disappointment, you said,
‘I hope everything is all right. I’m glad you’re here.’

Always straddling the tension and trying not to tap out.
Forever convincing ourselves that we can hold so many contradictory pieces and feelings.
Not only are tension and contradictory pieces OK and normal — they're the magic sauce.
Sometimes less is more. As we continue to move to online learning, please be mindful of the confusion, chaos, challenges and changes. Please do not try to do it all. Take care of yourself first.
