I also give examples of when I have had to actually use this skill/knowledge in my own life - J.

Sports are a topic we love to explore! I have found that this group is very hard working and will try anything I ask. They make it easy for me to enjoy teaching them!!!

I show them love and compassion, and let them know that I'm here for them on a daily basis. In first grade, I try to use encouragement to inspire my students. I discourage the word "can't" and have them try their best, and praise them when they do a good job! I also try to make real world connections with them, since usually those are things they can relate to and catches their attention :) - C.McCandless caitlyn_mccandless https://padlet.com/tonia_paramore/qsahptwi05gr/wish/188461614 2017-09-18 13:44:29 UTC https://padlet.com/tonia_paramore/qsahptwi05gr/wish/188461614 lindsey_bates https://padlet.com/tonia_paramore/qsahptwi05gr/wish/188484990 I love inspiring my students by getting their families involved. If their parents know how much they are loved at school, then the parents are more willing to work with them. If they work with them, the students are receiving more "serve and return" at home each day. They come in filling more confident, well rested, and ready to learn. I love finding one student per day to call/write/email their parents to say something good, even if it's an e-mail to tell the parent their behavior was AWFUL that day. I find a way to tell the parent that I'm on "their team" and that we will get through it together.

I want them to know they are valued. I always like to celebrate other things in their lives besides school because everyone's talent is not academic! blingblingingjulie https://padlet.com/tonia_paramore/qsahptwi05gr/wish/188493552 Marlowe]]> 2017-09-18 14:41:31 UTC https://padlet.com/tonia_paramore/qsahptwi05gr/wish/188493552 deb1392 https://padlet.com/tonia_paramore/qsahptwi05gr/wish/188498131 I try to inspire my students by teaching them how music can influence every part of their lives. Music affects their culture, their bodies, their minds and their play! I show them that music is in social studies, math and science. It's everywhere around them! Music can add value to anything and I hope I show them that. But most of all, I try to show them everyday that EVERYONE can be a musician.

Have them write in a journal or do a ticket-out-the-door just to see how they are feeling. If something is going on at home in their personal lives, then it could be affecting their school work. Just asking how they are doing is a way to show you care about them on a deeper level.

Also, being consistent with consequences (good or bad) helps them find their place in the world...a sense of belonging...a safe place to mess up, be corrected while being be loved through it all. :) dione_massey https://padlet.com/tonia_paramore/qsahptwi05gr/wish/188514104 D.

There is so much beauty in being unique and coming up with your own way of doing things! I hope to inspire them to show this individuality in their artwork, too.

McClain]]> 2017-09-18 15:47:04 UTC https://padlet.com/tonia_paramore/qsahptwi05gr/wish/188529983 I inspire students by encouraging them to always do their best. What works for someone else may not work for them so it is important to make it your own and be proud of it. I share pictures and outstanding work in our Team Fleming Bulletin every week so parents are getting to see what their kids are doing, and the kids can then "teach" their parents new things. These kids know that I love them and want them to be successful. https://padlet.com/tonia_paramore/qsahptwi05gr/wish/188625360 M. Fleming]]> 2017-09-18 18:45:03 UTC https://padlet.com/tonia_paramore/qsahptwi05gr/wish/188625360 I inspire my students by encouraging them to ask questions and share ideas about whatever we are learning, even it they are not correct. I remind them that we learn from the mistakes we make, and I can help them more if I know where they are making their mistakes. I make sure to make eye contact with them, so they know I care about what they are asking or telling me. I also, inspire my students by praising them often. I believe that lots of praise motivates my students to work hard and do their best. :) https://padlet.com/tonia_paramore/qsahptwi05gr/wish/188703417 D.

I also believe in having a positive teaching environment. I take pride in knowing the students can trust me and feel comfortable taking chances in the room. I love seeing their creativity and imagination show in their work. ]]> 2017-09-20 21:11:24 UTC https://padlet.com/tonia_paramore/qsahptwi05gr/wish/189545819 Paramore https://padlet.com/tonia_paramore/qsahptwi05gr/wish/190647170 Inspiring students begins when you show them you are interested in what they say and do. It happens when you take time to listen to them and provide them feedback and guidance. Inspiration comes with a hug, a high five, or a shared joke. I firmly believe that our students need to be loved before they can learn. They need to know we are here because we care about them. ]]> 2017-09-25 01:28:48 UTC https://padlet.com/tonia_paramore/qsahptwi05gr/wish/190647170 I inspire my students by showing them how much I love and care about them. I hope to teach them compassion, kindness, and love. I believe that the best thing I can do for my students is to let them know they are are loved. kelly_cravey https://padlet.com/tonia_paramore/qsahptwi05gr/wish/191067292 K.
