One thing I've been trying to work on with some of our students is to help them communicate their needs or what they are wanting in that moment to my CT or me instead of running out of the classroom to try and solve the issue themselves. That way we get trust built and know where the kids are at the same time! (Can you hear the exhaustion)

I am excited to teach my students communication skills. They have conflicts with each other and I think it is awesome teaching them how to respectfully communicate with each other! (Also I need to figure out how to communicate with them because they do not view me as a teacher lol..)
