I get the opportunity everyday to tell children what they are: loved, enough, important, resilient. Is there any greater privilege than to encourage these magnificent humans? #teachlikeme#scteachers#whyiteach
Reminding myself "teaching is hard because it matters". If it didn't matter it would be easy. If it didn't matter each day would be pointless. If it wasn't affecting someone's future, nobody would care. Teaching is SO HARD. But, anything that truly matters is not easy. #peptalk

“The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character - that is the goal of true education.” Dr King. Our goal for every child.
Monday means one more chance for amazing things and a great day to be alive! Monday holds so many joys we don’t even know yet. It means seeing the faces of beautiful kids who have their own joys and sorrows. Let’s go be hope! #L56onfire#callingallteachers#teachlikeme
We need to find more ways to recognize students for being dependable, for working hard, and for being kind. Those qualities will take them further in life than any honor roll.

I’ve noticed that some students behave in some classes but not in others. That tells me that teachers have tremendous potential to impact student behavior. I’ve also noticed that teachers who are kind but have high expectations get the best results.
Let’s not count down the days until our winter holidays. Let’s make the days count.
