@llewelyn20 Check the settings on it, there is a button on the back that changes the acceptable levels and if you fiddle with it everything reads high...one of my students taught me this in the hopes it would mean they could go outside to play football as it read as high!
The most powerful buffer in times of stress and distress is our social connectedness; so let's all remember to stay physically distant but emotionally close. Reach out and connect; even a short text or smiling face on Zoom can help. Regulate, Relate, Reason.
We’re back with part 2 of our “Dare to Lead” series on BRAVING Trust. In this episode, Barrett and I really dig into the core elements of the BRAVING Inventory, which can help us approach trust-building from a place of curiosity, learning, and connection. https://t.co/5IfqHYxVvP

As a teacher that has been and still is working throughout lockdown with vulnerable young people a community champion at the Burton @Morrisons store today made my day with his kindness when chatting about my day and a planned activity I was buying resources for! Thank you!
Never underestimate little touches. I had a child miss my zoom assembly & mum messaged me to say he was really disappointed. So I called him to have a chat; mum said it made his evening. Things like this have been done by staff for months all over the country. #teacherheros
