KBC -Creating a supportive and trusting environment

Question How can we create a supportive and trusting environment for this group to learn and evolve our practice?


Melanie -we need to assume that we are all passionate and assume postive attentions -we are all working to the benefit our students and the world around them

Jennifer -we need to show a willingness to try -to step outside our comfort zone and support each other in the process

Nicola -let's be open minded to all opinions

Brenda -we need to commit to make it a priority -make the effort every week -share things -give respect to the process with the time we have

Emily -keep it a collaborative approach -will make it less scary

Crystal -ask for help from each other when we need it

Tanya -take time to notice eah other -make the quick postive comments when in the hall

Brenda -create a model amongst ourselves of what we want our classes to be like

Melanie -we are the expereiment -do this ourselves to be able to guide our students -it is a wonderful opportunity -will we inspire our colleagues
