A few words every student needs to hear!
"I love having you in my class."
"It was hard for me, too."
"You got this! I believe in you."
"Wow, you worked so hard at..."
"Oops, I made a mistake."
"Need to talk?"
"You matter."

"Congrats--You're Having a Teen!" is terrific. I'm a huge Dr. Ken Ginsburg fan, and as I wrote in my review, I'm a little obsessed with this book. I'm in good company, too -- check out the reviews from @jesslahey @ellengalinsky @DrMadelineL @LDamour & @AdamMGrant! @parentandteen

How much time should you spend outside?
Try the 20-5-3 rule.
20 minutes a day/3 days per week in a neighborhood park.
5 hours a month in semi-wild nature, like a forested state park.
3 days a year off the grid -- e.g. in a cabin.
