@csiegel19 I learned that during my first year of teaching eighth grade way back in 1975. The good news is that once they begin to love and respect you, it lasts forever! Enjoy the journey!

We must help students identify and work through emotions before they can do it on their own! 🙌

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

True compassion is not just an emotional response but a firm commitment founded on reason. Therefore, our compassion for others does not change even if they behave negatively. Our sense of responsibility gives rise to a wish to help others actively overcome their problems.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

We may sometimes feel that we can't do much as individuals, but humanity is made up of individuals; together we can make a difference. As individuals we can influence our own families. Our families can influence our communities and our communities can influence our nations.

Don't expect to see positive changes in your life if you surround yourself with negative people.

[SocialEmotionalLearning @SELearningEDU]

The power of modeling behavior for kids should not be underestimated. Our actions are far louder & more impactful than our words. Be vigilant in how you are presenting yourself as this is the takeaway that stays with kids; not what you say, but what you do. #SEL #kidsdeserveit

We should handle all students with care. Not because they have been through a lot, but because that is how we should treat them every day.

Grudges are a waste of perfect happiness. Laugh when you can, apologize when you should, and let go of what you can’t change

[Danny Steele @SteeleThoughts]

Creating a brilliant lesson does not count for much if you have not first created a safe space in which students can lean.
