- Educators have NOT been on spring break or summer vacation since March. Working from home is much harder than teaching at school. I truly believe most educators would much rather be in a building, building relationships, seeing our students, and being with our colleagues. ♥️
- The new kid said,“Hi.” The class said,“Welcome to our family.” The new kid said,“I hate school.” The class said,“You’ll love ours.” The new kid said,“I can’t.” The class said,“You will.” The new kid said,“I have no friends.” The class said,“You do now.” Teach kids to ♥️ kids.
- ⚠️WARNING⚠️TEACHERS⚠️ ALL kids deserve a second chance. ALL kids deserve to start a new year off with a clean slate. ALL kids need their previous teachers to tell their future teacher about what they did great. TEACHERS DO NOT NEED A WARNING⚠️ABOUT KIDS. @SteeleThoughts
- Instead of... -Taking away recess -Giving silent lunch -Marking folders -Calling families w/ negative Try... -Playing w/kids at recess & asking, “How can I help?” -Talking w/kids over lunch -Teaching kids how to make better choices -Calling families w/ positive #KidsDeserveIt
- ***NOT BREAKING NEWS*** Teachers have to take an interest in ALL kids. Not just the “good” kids. Not just the ones who never get in trouble. Not just the one who make good grades. ALL kids. Kids know when you don’t. They feel it. Never make a kid feel like that. @SteeleThoughts
- My mom texted me today & asked me to pray. She not only asked me to pray, but she told me to reach out to everyone I know to do the same. She said, “There’s power in prayer.” So, in the midst of this #CoronaCrisis, can I get a prayer, an “Amen!” or both?🙏 #coronavirus #Covid_19
- If you’re a teacher & you’re on Twitter right now—on a holiday weekend, a weekend in general, or any other day of the year—you’re dedicated. You clearly want to grow as an educator & are passionate about what you do. Rest up. Recharge...& be the best for kids.♥️ @SteeleThoughts
- 📝TAKE NOTE EDUCATORS📝 ALL kids want a teacher who: 📌Greets them in the morning 📌Acts like they care 📌Knows how to say their name 📌Has an inviting classroom 📌Makes learning FUN! 📌ALL kids. 📌Not just elementary age. 📌Middle & high school kids too! @SteeleThoughts
- This is Cameron. He’s the 3 yo son of one of our bus drivers. Cam & I have become friends. We look for each other every day & every day I ask him, “What was the best part of your day?” He says: “YOU!”Then I tell him: “You’re the best part of mine!”❤️ #KIrkROAR #valentinesday2021
- I am a Texas teacher & a mom of a high school student in a Texas school. I can’t even imagine the heartbreak felt. We are teachers. All kids are our kids. When a school shooting occurs, we all feel the heartbreak. Please pray for Santa Fe.♥️ #SantaFeHighSchool #EndGunViolence
- I am an educator who typically is awake at 4:30am and at school by 6:30am. One of my goals during Spring Break was to sleep in until 8:00. It’s 8:10 and I’m still in bed. Sleep in, rest, relax, or do whatever else that relieves your stress, educators. You deserve it.
- Dear Students, I am not perfect. I am human. I can be grumpy. I can be impatient. I can even be wrong. When that happens, I will apologize. It’s my job to reflect and do better for me as a person and for you as your teacher. Sincerely, Your Always-Learning & Growing Teacher ♥️
- **YOU MAY BE A TEACHER IF** -It’s officially your SUMMER, yet you still wake up at the break of dawn. -You’re reflecting... CONSTANTLY! -Your amazon cart is filled with at least ONE of the latest books on education. -You already are planning for NEXT year. @SteeleThoughts
