Students know when a teacher is real. They have a radar for authenticity. * Admit when you've made a mistake * Say Thank You * Don't pretend to know it all * Listen to them/ ask them about their hobbies * Use humor/ stories * Let them know/ see you really care What else?

So proud of these 2nd graders!

Please don't remove students from physical education, music, Arts, or other classes to remediate them in other areas. These classes are just as important for overall education and may be their favorite classes and one reason they like school.
