• Right now we need to start using methods of teaching that can better help our students to understand and recognize their feelings. 
Anxiety in children has been on the rise for a while, so knowing the signs of anxiety in your students is so important. The Encouraging Classroom is a great place for teachers to collaborate with each other and have access to so many great resources to help you and your students understand and learn social emotional skills.

  • Not enough.

I acknowledge that listening and reading is not enough. It’s a great start but it can’t stop there.

Today I will be reading up on and donating to organizations and causes.

As I do my research and make my donations, I will share about them in my IG stories and provide you with links to do the same.

If you’d prefer to do your own research, here’s a list to get you started. 
George Floyd family's GoFundMe

Minnesota Freedom Fund

Minnesota ACLU

Black Lives Matter Global Fund

Black Visions Collective

Racial Justice Network

ISAIAH

Showing Up for Racial Justice MN

YWCA Minneapolis

North Star Health Collective

Communities United Against Police Brutality

CTUL

Reclaim the Block

Minneapolis food shelves

St. Paul food shelves

The Food Group MN (offers help finding local food shelves)

If you have others to add to this list, I’d love to know!

  • I can do better.  I NEED to do better.

Our world is filled with such sadness, pain, and brokenness.  What has happened to George Floyd and countless others is WRONG.

I need to be more proactive.  I need to educate myself.  I need to have the tough conversations with others.  I need to challenge my beliefs and dig deeper and ask WHY.  I need to reflect.  I need to speak up.

I am taking a stand today to do more than just scroll through and watch others do the work.  I can’t hide behind the excuse of not knowing what to say or how to say it anymore.

As a mother and a wife, it starts with what I do, say, read, and watch inside of our home.  But it can’t stop there. 
As a neighbor, friend, educator, and honestly just a human being I have to do better, have the difficult conversations, lean in, and be proactive. 📷 Credit: @lettersfrom4th
