Monthly Reflection Themes
April
Theme: EMPATHY
Purpose: To improve one's ability to understand different perspectives even when you may feel differently about a situation.
Quote: "I believe we all have empathy. We may not have enough courage to display it."-Maya Angelou
March
Theme: Reflective Thinking
Purpose: To help us take a look at the bigger picture in order to understand and identify areas for improvement.
Quote: "The value you receive from reflective thinking will depend on the kinds of questions you ask yourself." John C. Maxwell
February
Theme: Culture
Purpose: To encourage multicultural awareness and acceptance within the educational environment
Quote: "Preservation of one's own culture doesn't not require contempt or disrespect for other cultures." -Cesar Chavez
January
Theme: Strengths-Based Pedagogy
Purpose: To help students build confidence, improve engagement, and increase achievement.
Quote: "A strength-based classroom is a place where students with all sorts of labels come together as equals to form a new type of learning environment." -Thomas Armstrong
December
Theme: Social Emotional Learning
Purpose: To ensure that we allow time for students to develop and use social and emotional skills in order to manage everyday challenges.
Quote: "The emotional brain responds to an event more quickly than the thinking brain." ~Daniel Goleman
November
Theme: Stereotypes
Purpose: To reflect on how we group people based on what we have been told, not necessarily what we know.
Quote: "The problem with stereotypes is not that they are untrue, but that they are incomplete." ~Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
October
Theme: Culturally Mediated Instruction
Purpose: To ensure that instruction incorporates and integrates diverse ways of knowing, understanding, and representing information.
Quote: Culturally Responsive Practice that views the culture, language, experiences, and learning modalities of each student as an asset in the classroom, not a deficit.
September
Theme: Inclusion
Purpose: To ensure that all students are supported academically and are extended a sense of belonging within the school environment.
Quote: Inclusion is not simply about physical proximity. It is about intentionally planning for the success of all students.
