We are working on mindfulness and self regulations strategies in morning meeting this week and these kids have been working on their warrior poses and building focus/balance through yoga. They are loving it! #tps501 #jardine501 #thisispublicschool

We talk a lot about teaching the whole child, but we also need to support the whole teacher. #teachergoals

As a teacher - I’m not preparing my students for a test. I’m looking for hard work and EFFORT... if I get that - I’m PROUD of them no matter what the test score says! Because that hard work down the road will translate into a good life! #NextLevelTeaching #DBCincBooks
