Greet and read.

The first and most important strategy to use each day is to “greet and read” each student when they enter the classroom. If you see a student is coming in angry and upset, set a time to meet with the student later to talk. Just you being compassionate and caring when a student is upset, goes a long way to help ease the troubled mood. It’s like when you are upset and a friend is there for you, someone who acknowledges how you are feeling.

Have an awesome day.
