Ch. 27 - We all need these, especially our students!! Make time for them individually, listen to them and really hear them, recognize and honor them, serve them(grow them) & bring out the BEST in them! Good for adults and children alike!! #JRE3rdGradeTheEnergyBus
@amiegraves14 I absolutely agree! A colleague once shared the idea that practice makes permanent. If we truly practice positivity, it will become permanent in every area of our lives. It’s a goal of mine. Thankful for those that keep me on the positive track!
#JRE3rdGradeTheEnergyBus ❤️Rule 5❤️ It can be so easy to waste energy on those who don’t want to get on your bus. But you can’t drive their bus! Also, don’t take it personally when they don’t want to get on your bus. All great reminders!
#JRE3rdGradeTheEnergyBus Posing a question here...Inviting parents at orientation to share our vision and get on our bus? It’s a team effort...help us, help them, help students accomplish their goals. Thoughts??
Another great idea, from Ch. 13-share one great success or proud moment daily. Vinyl letters on the back of my classroom door & as the kiddos line up for dismissal, they share one success or proud moment from their day (small or big; it doesn’t matter)! #JRE3rdGradeTheEnergyBus
Chap. 12 - A grateful or thank you walk...this could be done every morning as I walk from the parking lot to my classroom. “It’s physically impossible to be stressed and thankful at the same moment”!! Stay positive, my friends. #JRE3rdGradeTheEnergyBus
#JRE3rdGradeTheEnergyBus Chap. 11- And then the statement that speaks the most to me...”you can’t share the positive energy if you don’t have it yourself”!! This. Right. Here! PS I’ll be reading the book “The Positive Dog” next! 💚🐾
#JRE3rdGradeTheEnergyBus In chapter 10, I love the statement about spending 10 minutes a day to focus on your visions, to visualize, to see yourself accomplishing your goals! Very powerful! Also, the chant “we’re winners, not whiners”!! This is so me!!

Chapter 6 makes me think of all the leaders I’ve worked with. The ones that learned alongside their teachers were the ones that valued their teachers in a learning community. This is so important for the learning community to feel secure to learn and grow together. #JREchat
#KidsDeserveIt#JREchat Since opening JRE, 3rd grade has had a tradition to call parents after the first day of school. It’s the best start to the school year! Calling throughout the year for positive shoutouts is the next step. #GoalSetting
#KidsDeserveIt#JREchat My classroom is a family and a community. We take care of each other and our school. As a family, we have struggles and triumphs and we recognize, celebrate and learn from both. We are supportive, kind, hardworking, trusting, and accepting. #JRErocks
