Certify'em

 

I used to get in a beaucoup of trouble putting an Atta Boy certificate in a colleague's mailbox when they did something I thought was a bit stupid.  That being said if your students do something great (you define) and you are using google forms for a quiz then you can have them receive a certificate automatically.  To see how click here,   hopefully after checking out my amazon.ca ads below.   If you are Canadian and making any amazon.ca purchase please click on my links below first as I will get a small commission on anything you buy even if it is something else.   Thanks.  This post may contain affiliate links that earns me  a commission at no extra cost to you.  Buy your Christmas gifts soon.

No Act of Kindness is a Wasted Effort

 

From A Principals Reflection, Eric Sheninger writes 

Never miss an opportunity to show gratitude or bestow kindness on another person. Small, selfless acts like these don’t take much effort but can totally change the trajectory of other people and maybe even yours.

Whether you are a teacher or an administrator, the little time it takes to bestow kindness on a student, colleague, or parent could be the best few minutes of their day and possibly yours.  Even though texting and email are the convenient approaches, consider these options:

Handwritten note or Post It

Card with a personal message

Food, especially sweets

A small, inexpensive gift that has meaning

Phone or video call

Drop by a classroom, office, home, or anywhere else physically

Cover a class for a teacher or colleague
