Some lessons I’ve learned in over 30 years in education:
Kids often won’t because they can’t… yet.
All behaviour is communication, often pointing to unmet needs.
Cultivate community in your classroom and children will respond with connection, trust, and a sense of belonging.
Create joy every day. Use humour as a tool for connection. Play music, grow plants, and weave art across the curriculum whenever you can.
