Can I Pick Your Professional Brains Again?


Recommended Posts

FABULOUS!!!!

 

There's a teacher who's realised....

 

"I've come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element in the classroom.

It is MY person approach that creates the climate.

It is my daily mood that makes the weather.

As a teacher I possess a tremendous power to make a child's life miserable or joyous.

I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration.

I can humiliate or humour, hurt or heal.

In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis will be escalated or de-escalated and a child humanized or de-humanized."

 

Long may she have the best interest of G at the heart of all she does and appreciate having a parent who cares, communicates and appreciates a bit of support.

 

I suspect that you're going to have a much more enjoyable holiday now, Upsy?!

I love that little piece of prose Nona. Where did it come from? May I copy it?

 

Yes I think I will enjoy our break more now.

 

Thank you for all of the lovely supportive comments everyone has made.

 

I'm going to print off this whole thread to keep.

 

Now dare I ask you all to keep your fingers crossed that the statutory assessment is successful from my point of view and G is offered a place in the Autism unit attached to a local middle school for Sept 2012? We should know by Christmas or early in the new year. If that happens I shall feel that I can relax a little.

It's from an American site of motivational poems (no author quoted)... I'm sure it's been quoted on here before, too.

 

My fingers will be firmly crossed until you post with good news :o

 

Enjoy your summer!!

Everything crossed here for you! xD

 

Quite uncomfortable really - so place make sure you let us know when you get the news so that I can disentangle things! :o
