When we read to our children, they are doing more work than meets the eye. "It's that muscle they're developing bringing the images to life in their minds." @anya1anya ow.ly/XUCg50wzY3S

Parents can relate to their #teens with simple personal disclosures that remind kids that even if technology is different, human emotions are the same. #Parents can bond with their kids by focusing on these similarities @dr_fraga owl.li/97mS30odrHK #edchat #parenting

We have a favor to ask of you!
Our personal care room is running low on basic necessities including: shampoo/conditioner, toilet paper, laundry detergent, dish soap, deodorant etc. Any assistance is greatly... facebook.com/LISTENCS/videos…

Note to self: Leadership doesn’t always have to be heavy. Kids need us to be fun, light, goofy, weird, and dynamic, too. Sometimes the best part of educating is surprising kids—breaking expectation and just being human.

3 factors contribute to more kids having difficulty regulating their emotions and behavior says @KatherineLewis:
1️⃣ Less unstructured #play
2️⃣ More time spent on tech
2️⃣ They're not asked to contribute to a wider community

I love the fact that, no matter what goes wrong with the day, no matter how bad our “to do list” gets screwed up, no matter how many times the copier breaks, no matter how bad our lesson bombs... we always have the ability to be nice to kids... to make them smile. I love that.

For many of these young people, the biggest single stressor is that they "never get to the point where they can say, 'I've done enough, and now I can stop" bit.ly/2PphQve #edchat #anxiety #parenting #hschat #mschat #mentalhealth
