"What do you want to be when you grow up?" sends the wrong message about work.
We should teach kids that who you are is more than what job you do. Work is an activity—it doesn't have to define your identity.
A healthy sense of self is rooted in character, not career choice.

Anyone else noticing students opting out of assignments because they don’t like them or are boring? I think one of the after effects of their time “learning at home” is that they have determined that if they don’t like doing it, it doesn’t have value. Or is it just me?

#AISCgrade2 students presenting their Identity Museum project to parents. So proud of the creativity and persistence they showed as they prepared to showcase their learning. #AISCinquiry @AISCElementary @BabuFiona @MonaSylvina @EFijman @marykellyb @

Partnerships are great! #Grade2 students learn to be good listeners, and to give constructive feedback with their writing partners. They will grow these skills all year @AISCElementary!

#AISCGrade2 students are learning about wind and water erosion! In #AISCDesign they built different landforms and modeled what type of erosion created it! #AISCElementary

#AISCGrade2 visits the kitchen while inquiring into the versatility of the banana plant. Using the leaves to steam with, the students cooked a traditional Kerala dish called 'Elai Appams' (steamed rice cakes made in a leaf), in this hands-on lesson. #AISCElementary

Why are educators never considered the "experts" in education??? It's always someone outside the classroom.

How many schools can boast of having a "rainforest" inside the campus? #AISCelementary #grade2 @lisakrebs123 @BabuFiona @learnerDJ @AISCEco

It's been 598 since we've all been together on campus. Over 120 students, who have not set foot on campus since March 2020, have come home to us today! #WelcomeBackRaptors #AISCElementary #AISCMiddleSchool #AISChennai

After nearly 600days, this classroom space holds kids once again. We symbolically erased the old date and wrote in today's date to symbolise the past is gone. This present day is ours to make! #happyheart #hybrid #backtoschool @AISChennai @Sweety14531470

Love the 'cockpit' analogy @mikefishercoach uses. How might we inspire our students to steer straight ahead towards confidence? #TEDx youtu.be/GebvS2-xfdI

What we say in front of kids — even offhandedly — can impact them profoundly. For better and for worse. Here’s a phrase I try to encourage others to never say, especially in front of kids. For many kids, drawing is a more natural form of expression and communication. 1/2

By subtracting the phrase "I don't know" from her classroom – and adding this list of sentence starters – educator @Ms_Manning20 makes more space for #StudentVoice. #MTBoS #ITeachMath
