Be kind to yourself! Working long hours and not taking time out does not give you the time to reflect and renew. Love your job but live your life! 🤓

The advice from my year 7 class. “Miss. You are the only teacher who smiles at us”.

Trust, respect and rapport with the students comes first. The learning follows

Cherish the moments in class when a student "gets it", and you get to share in their delight. And show them that you (still) delight in learning too.

✳️There is another day after today ✳️Growing #inquiry mindsets is key ✳️Seek & act upon student voice for authentic learning ✳️You can never have too much experience ✳️When we dramatise we forget to empathise ✳️Work with your community and they'll be your biggest advocate

It’s all about relationships. Be: honest, fair, compassionate, a learner, a listener and humble.

As hard as it may be some days, focus on the positives. As hard as it may be with some students, focus on the positives.
