Wow! 'Me and My Fear' by Francesca Sanna This is a book would resonate with students who migrated to a new country... What a beautiful way to explain the fear that comes with being new, speaking a new language etc

Be kind to your students and to yourself. Those high expectations you used to set for your students and yourself? Lower them right down. What do we want when this is all over? Healthy and happy young people and teachers returning to school, excited to learn together again.

In this time of isolation and change, we still have so much to be grateful for. Let's explore gratitude together. How many squares are filled on YOUR board? What else would you add? Send me/post yours, would love to gather our collective positivity! 🧡 #mindfulness #gratitude

"This is such a blessing. We did not expect such kindness." Miguel owns La Ciguena resort in Spain. When his resort was closed due to coronavirus, he saw an opportunity to help. Some great acts of kindness coming out of these tough times! ow.ly/7mOv50zdcyf
