Episode Synopsis

In Part 2 of Making Connections, Sunny reflects on the final weeks of Term 1 and the small, intentional ways she built rapport with her students. From bonding over shared interests in books and music to bringing props onto yard duty, she highlights how these seemingly simple moments can leave a lasting impact. Beth offers insight into the world of relief teaching, where time is limited but opportunities for connection still exist, and how these connections lay the groundwork for setting clear expectations. The conversation highlights the power of ending each lesson on a positive note and the importance of making space for quieter students to feel noticed and valued. This episode reminds us that connection is always possible—and always worth it.More on Skinner - https://www.nu.edu/blog/behaviorism-in-education/ More on firm, fun, fair - https://amzn.asia/d/bjG8l3v SWPB - https://www.vic.gov.au/SWPBS Restorative practices - https://www.vic.gov.au/restorative-practice  Hosted on Acast.
