Positive Notes from the Sub

 I was in a classroom that the teacher utilized emotional education in her classroom. The students were not excited to see a guest teacher, which was my first tip that they loved her. Not only was her room cozy, but she was well prepared for me to teach. One big takeaway, her note sheet for me to complete. There was only space for "positive comments".

It really helped me reframe my thinking as I was working with students and focus on her students that were doing great things, which were most of them!

Freebie Focus: All About Me Science Beaker

I hunted for new and free resources and found this get-to-know-me activity. It is a beaker for students to complete on themselves and can be found here . The creator, The Crafty Teacher TX , permitted me to share this resource. It is appropriate for a middle school classroom and has questions that are great ice-breakers, like if you were on a deserted island, what three things would you need? This could be assigned on the first day of school or completed in class and posted on the walls.
