Staff Weekly Update
For the Week of October 12th, 2015
Let's not forget that emotions are the great captains of our lives and we obey them without realizing it. ~Vincent Van Gogh, 1889
A few wonderful reminders from C.L.A.S.S. and Jim McMillan . . .
The full powerpoint will be available to view on our 15-16 SGE Canvas folder, but for now, here are a few of my favorite slides to remember the power of emotions.
NEVER FORGET: Emotion drives attention; attention drives learning.
