What truth to this statement. Rather than turning to a recent email, answering a phone call or thinking about other things, what about giving our full attention to our students every moment we have them with us? I know I have written about this before, but it is so critical. Our students are watching our every move. Whether we're bugging them to complete a scholarship application, developing their character education, running a small group, holding a club meeting at lunch or asking about grades... if we can do all of those things while also keeping in mind that they need our full attention, then we have succeeded! It's a big task, and takes a lot of focus, but I think I'm up for the challenge today. What about you?
