How ‘bout noooooo?! Ever heard "Don't smile until after December" as a classroom management rule? Well, that's actually stopping you from forming those crucial bonds from day one... Here’s why: Showing care, fairness, and consistency from day one fosters a sense of belonging, justice, and makes students more receptive to learning. It's NOT about blowing smoke, folks. It's about genuine connection. So, let's kick that old rule to the curb and start showing kindness (the real kind) from day one, shall we? And you know what? I'm all ears for the worst advice you've been given. Drop it in the comments and let's debunk these teaching myths together! #TeacherLife #EdChat #ClassroomManagement #TeacherMyths #RealTeaching #TeacherTips #MythBusting #TeachBetter #BackToSchool #TeachingTruths created by Sarah Barnett with Angie's original sound
