Dear friends,
A friend and mentor once told me "The most valuable resource in the classroom is your attention and your energy. Use it wisely." I have found that responding to positive behavior instead of wasting my energy on the kids that are misbehaving can show dramatic results.
To quote Mark Twain, "I can live for two months on a good compliment."
