LET YOUR STUDENTS KNOW THEY ARE SAFE!

Our nation seems to be imploding with strife and hate.  When children see adults screaming at each other, and hurting each other everyday in the news and social media,it will spill into our classrooms.  This is a time calling for American educators to step up and do our part!

Fellow teacher, do not despair or feel helpless in this crazy world.  Now is the time for us to effect a change in the areas we control; our classroom; our interactions with our students.  Each of us can start on the very first day with small acts of kindness and kind words.  Even though our actions may seem insignificant, they are not.  Our small acts will carry the day.  We may not see the outcome our actions, but we will start a ripple that will change the life a student, and possibly others.

My last post was about how we, as educators, can support and help our students feel safe in our classrooms. But I wanted to help other educators in their efforts.  This is why I am giving away a free mini-poster from my Teacher Pay Teacher store.  I call it the "Stop the Hate Poster".  It can found here, and download, 100% free!  I created it in PowerPoint and it's editable, so you can make changes as you see fit.  Please share with as many teachers as possible!
