4. I’ve come to the frightening conclusion that I am
the decisive element in the classroom.
It’s my personal approach that creates the climate.
It’s my daily mood that makes the weather.
As a teacher, I possess a tremendous power
to make a child’s life miserable or joyous.
I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration.
I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal.
In all situations, it is MY response that decides
whether a crises will be escalated or de-escalated
and a child humanized or dehumanized
-- Hiam Ginott
