Love the distinction: involvement is leading with your mouth, engagement is leading with your ears. Captures the difference between a schoolcentric approach and a familycentric approach. @DrDebbiePushor @WalkAlongsideSK

Relationships and trust!

When asked why challenging Year 11s behaved so well for me I would say:

🧒 Because I had been teaching them and their peers since they were tiny Yr7s
👦 That I likely taught their older brother or sister
👩 👨 That I'd met their parents about ten times

And all that led to better self-regulation.

What a wonderful way to act on what you learn from your home visits! Honouring students as well as their families! #walkalongside #gentlerevolution

During home visits, I ask parents for hopes and fears as their child starts #kindergarten. I also leave a couple q’s for the students, including “I hope my teacher…” Today I compiled all of the answers and placed them above my computer to remind and guide me through our year! ❤️
