Positive feedback is such a powerful part of our classroom and I know that if I can approach my students in a respectful and caring way, my relationship with that student will continue to grow as the year goes on! Students may receive verbal praise, an email home, a shoutout on Seesaw, a Snap! ticket, or even a small prize for going above and beyond to make safe, responsible, and respectful choices in class. I love being able to recognize their good choices!

If students are making choices that are disruptive or disrespectful during class, they may be given a verbal warning or visual cue to get back on track. I typically try to follow up with a one on one conversation in the hallway to gauge my student's thoughts and emotions as well as help me decide on next steps, if needed.

More than anything, I try to communicate to students that we all make mistakes, have bad days, and are growing as people each and every day!
