6 Things to do Today....
Happy Monday All,
I'm forwarding on in an email an article that is very fitting for this time of year. It is entitled 6 Things to Do Today that Will Make Your Life Better at Work by Joseph Grenny. It is the time of year, where we feel that we have come so far, but feel the pressure to do so much more in the little time we have left. As we start feeling like that, sometimes we aren't the happiest or most productive at work. Grenny suggests 6 things that will help us all breathe ( and breeze) through our last nine weeks -
1. Reverse your thinking
2. Stop talking
3. Ask your self one question
4. Make it safe
5. Empathize
6. Invite dialogue
I invite you to read the whole article which I will send soon.
Thought of the week:
Think like a proton and stay positive!

Reminder
Time is important
2. Start your lessons at the time your schedule indicates. 90 minutes for ELA or math goes by very quickly if you lose 10-15 minutes of it in transition, and our kids need every minute of it.
