Positivity: The main reason you shouldn't be negative.

With all of the excitement a new school year brings, it can also bring lots of intimidating changes. New administration, new co-teachers, new policies... All of which can be very scary, especially for more experienced teachers. There are really only two ways you can handle these changes: Positively or Negatively.

A positive attitude will render positive results. What is the worst that could happen? A negative attitude will ensure you are miserable as things around you evolve and change, and you, get left behind.

I am still a baby teacher. I am still learning and adjusting my practice and finding new ways to reach my little butterflies. But shouldn't we all be?

We preach to our kids about being  eternal learners and always searching to be better students. When did teachers become exempt from that?
