Teachers have to take an interest in ALL kids. Not just the “good” kids. Not just the ones who never get in trouble. Not just the one who make good grades. ALL kids. Kids know when you don’t. They feel it. Never make a kid feel like that. @SteeleThoughts

Whenever I discuss the need for change in our education system, I'm reminded of these words;
'The world as we have created it, is a process of our thinking. It cannot be changed without changing our thinking.' - Albert Einstein
My ES1 students love this alternative hands-on activity for practising letter formation. Students just shake the tray after each use, and using a deep tray helps make less of a mess #acuedu_p
