Some of our students have been let down by adults in their life.
When they don’t automatically trust you from the beginning, try not to take it personally; often times has nothing to do with you.
Be patient. It can take time... sometimes a lot of time before trust can be built.

Elementary teachers boggle my mind. How do they think of these tricks, like putting painter's tape on tables for space issues?? Sometimes 7th graders still need this guidance.

Lesson plans are important, and pedagogy matters… but some of the most important work of teachers, might not be captured by a plan. When teachers encourage, support, inspire, care about, and connect with their students… they are engaged in work that transcends the “plan.”

We can’t control the environment our #students were in prior to coming to school.
We can, however, control the environment they experience once they arrive to #school.

Traumatised students begin to express their true rage & distress with people they trust. They don’t do this because they think you are an easy target. They do this because they are hopeful you won’t abandon them tipbs.com

"When students feel ownership of their learning environment, feel part of the learning environment, and build up their non-academic skills, they can better access the content and have a better attitude about school."

Never shut the door on students; regardless of what poor choice they make.
There should always be another chance & there should always be room for redemption.
The worst response we can have is to close the door, lock it & throw away the key.

Don't call him "at-risk." You stigmatize him when you do. Call him at-promise, at-potential, at-possible, at-probable!

Sometimes constructive feedback hurts. It hits you in the gut and knocks the air out of you. It’s doesn’t just feel personal, it is personal.
Remember though, if someone is willing to take the time to provide you honest, timely, and actionable #feedback, they care about you.
