5 non negotiables for success w ur toughest kids.

1. You have to like them.
2. Private is better than public.
3. Some is better than none.
4. Late is better than not at all.
5. 2nd to last word is best.

After our first 20 minute run at practice tonight we asked the girls how they felt. My favorite response: “I really couldn’t breathe at all but I loved it because my partner was encouraging me the whole way with nice words.” Heart officially melt @gotrtwincities @PalmerLakeElem

There is no such thing as a “behavior problem.” Behaviors are solutions to problems. Focus on making each student feel these things & they will no longer misbehave.

1. Attention.
2. Power.
3. Control.
4. Competence.
5. Belonging.

Each relationship in your #TeacherLife holds so much possibility, says educator @justintarte.

[Jessica Skolnick @MrsSkolnick]

Interesting idea @MrsMiller279 ... worth a shot on our next test? Discuss as a small group directions and give 5 min to share ideas?

[Teacher2Teacher @teacher2teacher]

Before Ss show what they know, give them a chance to put their heads together, suggests educator @howie_hua in this #BiteSizedPD. Might you give this a try?

[Jessica Skolnick @MrsSkolnick]

The reason I love my job beyond measure... these incredible kids. Happy New Years from our class to yours! @PalmerLakeElem
