# 4 Things A+ Educators Do

July 28, 2016

Happy Thursday, teacher friends!

Can you believe it’s almost August already? With just a few weeks left till you meet your new students, gear up for this year’s adventure with some wise words from Nancy Mather, Sam Goldstein, and Katie Eklund, co-authors of [**_Learning Disabilities and Challenging Behaviors._**](http://products.brookespublishing.com/Learning-Disabilities-and-Challenging-Behaviors-P843.aspx) These four “Effective Educators” quotes are simple but powerful reminders of what it takes to meet the needs of every learner and create inclusive, welcoming classrooms.
