In Practice Review by https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38 Thoughts? en-us 2020-12-01 16:36:01 UTC 2025-11-22 18:56:24 UTC hello@padlet.com I agree with the self help; however, not sure how to do all of the things the book talked about to do that. csmith1267 https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979517427 Not taking things home is impossible.  Not spending 2-3 hours either at school or at home during the week is something I dont see happening in order to be prepared for my class on a daily basis.

This really made me more mindful of how I spend my time and take a look at my priorities to ensure that I am taking care of myself so that I can be here and ready to be my best for my students.]]> 2020-12-02 13:04:58 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979518616 https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979519145 I have been more mindful of my attitude towards my misbehaving students and have tried to shift my focus from "what is wrong with you?" to "what has happened to you?"

]]> 2020-12-02 13:05:09 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979519145 I would really like to create a family picture wall in my room next to my desk. I also need to make a point to change the background of my computer to have some of my family. Family always takes me to my "happy place" when I feel frustrated or overwhelmed. hsonnigsen https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979519234 2020-12-02 13:05:11 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979519234 I tried to be more mindful of why an object might be of importance to a child https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979519236 2020-12-02 13:05:11 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979519236 I tried to remember that kids in trauma are connection seeking, not attention seeking. I tried to make conversations with these students more carefully focused on making a connections with them. As my focus changed, my stress level went down. https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979519433 2020-12-02 13:05:16 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979519433 I welcomed the time to pause and reflect on 'care' which includes self. thinesley1 https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979519608 I hope to use the strategies to schedule moments to assure self-care and opportunities to self-regulate. I clicked with identifying 2 days to leave on time or by 5:00pm; scheduling boundaries on use of technology; and identifying days of not bringing work home. Love it!]]> 2020-12-02 13:05:20 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979519608 I kept in mind that I can't control the situation that a student might have that causes the anger that is displayed by one of my students. However, I did try to be mindful of helping him to extend his tolerance of situations in the classroom. jgehrke2 https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979520471 2020-12-02 13:05:37 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979520471 https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979521747 I have tried to take in to consideration that every student has a "story." Each student story may look completely different. However, I need to take a step back and think about how to handle behaviors to some extent. ]]> 2020-12-02 13:06:05 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979521747 https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979522242 I have really tried to keep in mind that my biggest behavior kids have went through some extreme trauma. They are looking for connections and it's my job to help them figure out a good way to get those connections.]]> 2020-12-02 13:06:16 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979522242 https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979522393 These past couple weeks I was able to give positive feedback and affirmations to the students. I found myself calling out students who were not doing what they were supposed to be doing and found myself praising the students that were doing the right thing. This positive attention then made the students want to do the right thing for that positive attention as well. ]]> 2020-12-02 13:06:19 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979522393 I am trying to make sure I take time to intentionally connect with my students. They are more willing to work for you if they know you truly care about them. It is interesting working with kiddos virtually. Some of their actions are so funny. However if they were in a classroom those same actions would drive me crazy. It is giving me a new perspective on our kids. Actually seeing what is going on in some of their homes is giving me new perspectives. jbowman8 https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979522577 2020-12-02 13:06:22 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979522577 "Building Your Own Calm" checklist seemed do-able! https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979523671 2020-12-02 13:06:42 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979523671 https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979524257 I tried to be more mindful of looking at student behavior that wasn't ideal from the light of where is this behavior really coming from instead of just trying to correct it instantly and move on.]]> 2020-12-02 13:06:52 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979524257 https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979525476 I always try to give my kids a few minutes just to share at the beginning of our small groups...a lot of them just really want to talk about what's happening in their lives outside of school, and typically just a couple of minutes is enough time to help build that relationship throughout the year.]]> 2020-12-02 13:07:16 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979525476 I've really been working on being more mindful/aware when I approach student behaviors. Especially in my wording of questions and addressing the situation https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979525843 2020-12-02 13:07:24 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979525843 I contribute to the atmosphere and the calm in my classroom with my own emotions/mood/mindset. https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979526252 2020-12-02 13:07:33 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979526252 A night I would choose to not do anything - what happens if Mr. Baut comes in that day to observe and I am not prepared. It is a reflection on me. We also still have testing in front of us all the time. The accountability piece is huge as a teacher. csmith1267 https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979526858 2020-12-02 13:07:45 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979526858 I am trying to develop deeper connections and understanding of my student's life outside school life. https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979528324 2020-12-02 13:08:13 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979528324 I've thought about trying to eliminate anything that a student may see as a threat, hoping to "head off" some undesirable behaviors. https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979528843 2020-12-02 13:08:21 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979528843 I am trying to create a judgement-free zone. https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979532624 2020-12-02 13:09:30 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979532624 Some teachers do not have a class facing them all day long - I cant say i csmith1267 https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979533286 2020-12-02 13:09:43 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979533286 Every student really does have their own story. adegitz https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979536349 2020-12-02 13:10:38 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/979536349 https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/980041300 I’ve been giving the kids I work with the first 5 minutes of our time to tell me about what happened the night before. What they did what they had for dinner  basically anything not school related. I feel like it’s helping me build relationships with my students.

I try to look at the whole picture instead of just focusing on what is going on inside the building.]]> 2020-12-02 15:04:59 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/980052762 https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/980056847 I am here to support students, not to control them!]]> 2020-12-02 15:05:45 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/980056847 I tried to focus on what type of “seeking” students were wanting. Did they just want my attention or were they looking for a connection. This helped me in dealing with situations because I was focused on what the student needed from me. I found myself moving away quicker from attention seeking and focused on making connections. https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/980060666 2020-12-02 15:06:31 UTC https://padlet.com/inpac31/mv07o9hyzdjlxn38/wish/980060666
