fell off zoom towards the end of the call, Couldn't get back in.  Thank you so much everyone.  Hope we have more of these opportunities to connect as Soka educators during this amazing and challenging time.

The physical space is super important and how we set things up for student's success, emotional academic, , social spiritual and physical safety.

My determination is to really win, really win in every area that I am suffering with in my life, every area, turning it into a Buddhaland.  If those areas expand, then I will REALLY be able to share that sacred space feeling that all my students deserve.

I noticed that when I chanted to have a joyful classroom and see and connect with every single student's Buddhahood-those days felt like my classroom was really a sacred space. I want to do that more consistently-not just occasionally.

Chanting more deeply to be Sensei's disciple every day; read V. 24 again esp. the quotes shared here, making courageous determinations for the growth of our district and taking action EVERY DAY without harboring ANY doubt.  (welcome the doubt and then politely show it the curb)!

# data[].attributes.body
start every morning with daimoku; focus on life condition and wisdom; THEN chant about the specific students I am seeing this summer and how I can understand and support their challenges

# data[].attributes.body
Chant the kind of daimoku Naoko described. "Pour our lives into praying and engraving gohonzon in our lives"

As a high school art teacher, I am challenging myself to make more of my own artwork this summer, which I will share with my students. I think it's important to continue growing as an artist myself, so that I can relate to the creative process that they are going through.

Sensei's insight into the fact that humanistic education begins with the human revolution of the teacher sticks with me over the years like a touchstone I return to over and over again. At my school, we are struggling with issues of racism and the lack of social and emotional learning. I was struck by an article that I read this morning about the huge difference a teacher can make by taking the time and making the effort to learn to pronounce students names.
