I document some thoughts on the podcast. Also, the circle we had about what makes us unique and how influential circles can be when everyone is buying in to the process.

I document when ignoring behavior can be a good thing and why trauma needs to be taken into consideration if we want students to learn at school.

I document me being terrible at looking at questionnaire I give students, a circle about what students learned from a team building field trip and how I'm handling frustrations regarding procedures in the classroom.

I give an update on the year of the relationship so far and positive phone calls home. I also share how I "assign" seats and the message that went along with the explanation today.

I documented conversation I had with the former student of mine and what his new teachers are like. I also share a reminder that what makes us different as teachers are our strengths, just like our students.

I document some thoughts on a memory I had while student-teaching and saying OK too much.

I document a student situation where I give them choices and reflect on the fact that while we give students choices based on our experience, it's ultimately up to the student to make it themselves. Oh, and we have the choice to know we are doing our best too.

I document why having lunch with students will help build relationships and thoughts about the follow up circle we had about issues needing to be addressed in class.

I document how I haven't done a great job in the past of looking at student questionnaires and also how we reflected on a field trip. Also, some thoughts on routines and expectations to begin the school year and why students could feel annoyed with me right now.

A quick reflection after leaving my sons daycare about the teaching profession and how it's an act of service.
