What is the Weather in Your Classroom?

“I’ve come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element in the classroom. It’s my personal approach that creates the climate. It’s my daily mood that makes the weather. As a teacher, I possess a tremendous power to make a child’s life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration. I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal. In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis will be escalated or de‐escalated and a child humanized or de‐humanized.”

‐Haim Ginott

Where to Begin

Needs Assessment

My pacing and transitions are efficient and smooth and students respond promptly to cues.I create a culture of

curiosity and questioning in my classroom.

My students are challenged to explain, reason, justify, and critique responses of others.
