14 BE COURAGEOUS Words have power - to uplift or to tear down - to inspire or to incite - to heal or to hurt - to create or destroy. Words define our reality - for better or for worse. - BJ Gallagher Those kids. These are my least favorite two words in the entire English language. They are words that categorize kids into groups. They could refer to students with disabilities or students of poverty. They could be students who recently immigrated into the country and have limited English language skills. They are sometimes bullies. They might be behaviorally challenged kids. Or, they could just be misbehaving students. The words are exclusionary. They are limiting and certainly not solution oriented.
