R-E-S-P-E-C-T

Alright, I'm not trying to go all feminazi on you this morning by busting out Aretha Franklin tunes. I just wanted to share a few thoughts about respecting one's self and others. I really feel like it is an overlooked practice that we should all try to insert back into our lives. As I sat down to make my "classroom rules," I realized that all I really want from my students is for them to respect one another and me, along with giving their best each day. Respect is a huge part of our lives. We are constantly encountering and communicating with strangers, enemies, and best friends. I challenge you to show a little love and respect to everyone you meet today... and always.

Happy hump day ;-)
