Most importantly I want them to have self confidence, and that is what I strive to support everyday.

Absolutely not!! You are building a foundation for thinking and learning, honoring the abilities of some and honing the skills of others. The points you mention are crucial not just in school but in life, and you're working to give your young learners the tools they need for success.<br />What may or may not be neglected as they move through school can't be your issue.<br />Just keep giving them your best today!!<br />Linda<br /><a href="http://primaryinspiration.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Primary Inspiration</a> <br />Linda Nelson @ Primary Inspirationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17052845800294922592noreply@blogger.com
