Introverts, Affirmation, and Parent Conferences

In this episode, Julie and Laura talk about the power (and stress) of parent conferences. They share Jordan's story about a special moment at a parent conference with her fifth grade teacher, Mrs. Arbor. As educators, the words we say about our students can shape the way they see themselves.

In this episode, we reference the book Safe, Seen, and Stretched in the Classroom
