@MelissaAndaya3 It is easy to forget sometimes. We have to help teach our students how to regulate their emotions and actions. Great reminder!!!😊

@sviteauxconroe1 That’s the same message I took from my book. Understanding their needs and actions is essential.

Q7 I would like to try something this year. Writing them a positive note or a thank you note for something they helped with. I saw how one of students lite up from a former teacher’s note. She kept it with her all year. #Raccoonscontribute

@kfirstgrade Q6 Watching you teach and being around you with your students, I can see your students feel loved. They are always eager to greet you every day. You can see they adore being a part of your class. #Raccoonscontibute

@GonzalezBBRice Taking time to get to know each other allows you to become more than a colleague but a friend. That’s a great thing to be.

Q5 We can model a spirit of encouragement and support for each other by listening to each other, looking for ways to help and respecting them. #Raccoonscontribute

@RebeccaArtsy Thank you for encouraging and pushing the kiddos to do their best. Allowing them to express themselves through the variety of art materials lights up their imagination. Thank you for all of your countless hours of dedication.

Q4 As an educator, I hope to be remembered as a caring, funny and thoughtful teacher. My wish is that my students know that we were a family that cared for each other. That I was silly but they loved coming to my class. #Raccoonscontibute

@bsheranko This book reminds us we are here to teach more than academics but how to communicate, reflect and help students to be responsible for their actions.

Q3 Reading this book reminds me how important OUR morning meetings are. We are establishing relationships and discussing emotions. Throughout this book, having a class meeting (circle up) allows negative behaviors to be discussed and resolved. #Raccoonscontribute

[Linda Feagin @feagilin]

@codyjbearden You provide this best learning environment for our kiddos. They feel loved, successful and encouraged when they are with you. Thank you for supporting their needs.

[Linda Feagin @feagilin]

@skor0127 Having some of your former students, I can say you are amazing at providing an encouraging and positive environment for your students to grow in. They love you!!!

Q2 I found a connection between a video from safe schools and approach used in this book. We often take the “iceberg perspective” and realize that every behavior has other things packed under it. Use open-ended questions to seek and understand the behavior. #Raccoonscontribute

Q1 I chose Hacking School Discipline so I could learn the causes/effects of negative behavior in school. This book shares how to eliminate punishments and build a classroom for responsible learners. #Raccooncontribute

@HeyMissHenry That quote makes you think. Haha. It’s true what seems important at the time you think of it might not actually be that important. Interesting!!!

[Linda Feagin @feagilin]

Q8 I found the section of my book on emotions very informative. “Emotions run our brains particularly those of school-age students.” We all know that but the science behind it is well worth the read. It’s fascinating.

[Linda Feagin @feagilin]

@natalieann322 We do have to remind ourselves daily to be that positive environment for our students even on long, hard days. The benefits for them are numerous.

[Linda Feagin @feagilin]

Q7 This book reminds me that I am providing enrichment to my students, promoting a positive environment and ways I can improve their learning experiences using the best mindset. #Raccoonscontibutes

[Linda Feagin @feagilin]

Q6 Mrs Orr’s smile and gentle spirit gives me encouragement and joy to share with others. I appreciate her help and positive attitude. #Raccoonscontibutes
