- "I am sorry you feel that her needs are not being met. We will place her in an ESL classroom where she can feel more comfortable and heard. I hope that we will be able to find the perfect fit for her here. I appreciate your honesty. Are there any more concerns of yours and your family?
- A few ways I can help my students, no matter their situation or needs, feel heard: 1. I will check in with each student, hold personal conferences with the students and ask them where they think they need growth and I will be as responsive as possible.2. I will make sure my classroom is a safe space where students may democratize and stand up for their beliefs without feeling ashamed. 3. I will hold meetings with parents on glows and grows, ask the parents if there are many specific areas of growth they feel that want to concentrate in.4. I will grow personal relationships with each child.
