i learned more

in ten minutes than i have in all 4 weeks of school this semester. this amazing mom came in and spoke to my PE class yesterday and gave us some 7 seriously awesome tips for working with special needs students in our future...

1. Be overly kind and empathetic
2. Communicate with the parents (share how their day was because they won't)
3. Peer tutors (they make life long friendships)
4. Find something nice to say (be positive!)
5. Learn to celebrate the tiniest accomplishments
6. Find the humor (best part about teaching right!?)
7. Don't give up!
