The most effective teachers understand that classroom management is not about having the right rules it’s about having the right relationships. - @steelethoughts #wholechildsummit https://t.co/bm5fJqsix5

PSA: 📣

When you begin to think about scheduling and classroom structure next year, the first thing should be intentionality with time for relationships.

Next should be everything else.

PSA:

Set boundaries. You do not need to answer emails and fix problems all weekend.

You need a break too. Your family deserves a present you.

PREACH. So many times certain people in the profession will genuinely make you feel bad for empathizing+showing kindness... it can be hurtful. Adults who treat kids like human beings... as an admin- I am saying it loud and clear: these are the kind of adults I WANT on my campus!

Punishing kids with ADHD for having ADHD makes less sense than giving kids coping strategies. We must first understand the behaviors. #teachergoals

Emotional intelligence must be taught and modeled in schools if we want to create leaders. #teachergoals

Imagine spending all day on things you don't feel good at, then being expected to be engaged.

If we can let kids spend some time on what they feel good at, and some time to discover what they are passionate about, they will work harder to get better at their weaknesses.

I'm good with giving the student who needed four attempts to demonstrate mastery the same grade as the student who only needed one attempt.

Expecting each student to master the same skill at the same time is akin to asking each student to wear the same size shirt.

We need to teach, model, and coach the skills needed to access the curriculum for many of our kids with these needs! #KidsDeserveIt #teachergoals

Discipline is not yelling, screaming, and/or punishing a kid. Discipline is coaching them towards better decisons and having them take ownership of their actions. #teachergoals

If you see something special in someone, be sure to let them know.

They may at first be surprised by what you see in them. This is normal because they might not yet see it in themselves.

Encourage them nonetheless.

Let me tell you something I’ve learned. It is hard to hate...up close. When you know someone...really know them, it’s hard to hate them. It’s hard to hate...up close. If you don’t want to know them simply because they are different, then you are the problem !! Learn to love!
