I was talking to my wife over last weekend and mentioned the following:
Imagine you were born in 1900.
By the time you were 45 you would have gone through a flu pandemic, the Great Depression, and two world wars...
And we think we have it tough.

I heard a teacher talk to a student about his soccer game as he walked into class. That might seem like a little thing. But if you understand how class climate is built… if you understand how relationships with students are cultivated… you know it’s a big thing.

Themes for 2019 - for children, adolescents, parents, teachers & principals? Sleep. Sleep. Sleep. It seems everyone thinks they’re the exception; turns out we are not - or that no one quite understands our lifestyle; irrelevant. Sleep. Sleep. Sleep. 😴😴😴

Classrooms that use circles, U-shaped seating, or other arrangements to support group work and peer-to-peer collaboration are becoming more common. The science says that’s right on. edut.to/2AF9BYx

Thought for the day: The more deposits that we make throughout the school day in terms of smiling, greeting, listening & talking to students & staff the more likelihood of a positive return on our investment....via #Culturize

Our words are probably more powerful than we can ever know. It’s so important to speak words that lift up, give encouragement, and offer hope. The words we say can make an extraordinary difference in the lives of others and in our own life too.

Had to withdraw from a future speaking engagement because the organisers had a line up of 8 men. Fortunately managed to get them to agree to replace me with a superb (female) speaker. To their credit they're now overhauling policies BUT it shouldn't happen in the first place.

To build powerful relationships with all learners:
1. Love your kids more than the subject you teach and/or the grade level you work with.
2. Use feedback and positive reinforcement as the main learning motivator, not grades or marks.
3. Be empathetic.

Students care about your lesson and the time you spend preparing for the day. Yet they care more the time you spend smiling, greeting, and connecting with them! #edchat
