Right. This is one part of the book I'd write differently today. Diff b/t being a "friend" and being "friendly." @rickwormeli2 #DitchBook

Exactly! Need to remember that everything is personal & learning is no exception-Need to connect relationally, not systemically #ditchbook

A2: Connecting on a personal level shows Ss that we are human too and that we care/understand some of their struggle #ditchbook

AnnickRauch Jun 22 @ 10:18 PM EDT

A2: important to be friends to build that sense of belonging, family. to relate to one another. Good for S to see we're human #DitchBook
