My Favourite Strategy!
“Connect and collect success” – this is my favourite strategy! I have found over so many years of teaching that relationships with students are everything. When I take the time to connect with my students, particularly the challenging ones, help them collect success and believe in themselves, it wins half the battle already. Look them in the eye, smile at them and tell them you are really happy they came today. You can see the change in them. This has helped to win over some particularly challenging children.
