Reading and books are significant parts of my life and I love to use them in the classroom. I always give positive attention by pointing out what a child is doing well. When a child is being disruptive, we talk about what they are doing that is disruptive and what could be done differently next time. Growing and learning to self regulate is a process that comes in small steps. It is a joy to help build the foundation for the next generation by teaching our students to be kind, thoughtful and to develop a love of learning.
