A2: sticky note to-do lists everywhere!!! #huskychat

Since having a baby, self/ family care has become a huge priority this year. I try to use my time more wisely at work. And if I do I have to bring things home, I set a time limit for myself and remind myself that it always gets done #huskychat

@mrsbangel @Seesaw @drmcgaughy I still haven’t learned how to use seesaw! It’s on my list of goals for the year!

A5: this year I have started using class Dojo. I send pictures of my student conferences to their parents so they can practice with them at home as well! #huskychat

A2: I am excited to use Mr. Perkins’ 10 finger scale with my kiddos to measure the size of the problem vs. the size of their reaction #huskychat

A1: I see a lot of difficulty with coping skills. Small problems seem like the end of the world to most of my students. #huskychat
