A Powerful Idea for the Start of a New Semester

The High Performing Educator Podcast

Mr. Loudfoot is a teacher that changed my life. He is retired now, although his practices and philosophies live on. In today's episode, I share an idea he used at the beginning of our semester/term that enabled him to make students feel seen, heard, valued and appreciated. It's a simple idea, yet when executed, very powerful.
