This is such a powerful reminder for us teachers.
When we start to feel frustrated with students, ask them to write down three things on their mind.
I'm pretty sure it will change our response every time.
Kudos to this teacher and every teacher who gives so selflessly to their kids every day."Today has been rough. It’s after testing, after a long weekend, end of the year crazy times.
This morning, one of my friends was super clearly off-task. I’d given instructions, reminded & repeat & repeat & repeat & repeat.
Normally, it would have been allllllll spice from me in reaction. For whatever reason, instead, I asked him to write down three things that were on his mind from the weekend, keeping him from working. He wrote these three things.
I wrote back.
My reaction to the crazy has been totally different all day because I have a little more perspective.
I miss the mark and get it wrong and react in a spicy way too often, but I’m trying extra hard to get it right today. 💕" 📷: instagram.com/jsscytn
