There’s actually a correlation between a teacher’s mood and how their students perform. A teacher who often shows positive emotions can influence their students’ well-being. Students with a happy teacher have higher levels of motivation and are more likely to report academic success; they also tend to experience a reduced amount of boredom or frustration.
Teaching in Magenta, which is written by longtime teacher James Alan Sturtevant and illustrated by Lauren Barnes, covers 100 different daily ideas, or “paths,” that you can use to become more engaged with your students and colleagues. These “paths” are organized by five key traits that Sturtevant deems paramount to the well-being of teachers and, by extension, their students.
Sturtevant notes that teachers who exhibit compassion, optimism, balance, adaptability, and contentment will have the greatest impact on their students. Each “path” in his book gives you a single trait to work on, allowing you to form an easy, step-by-step daily plan that you can follow at your own pace. Sturtevant also emphasizes the role that these traits have in building relationships with students.
By making a conscious effort to exhibit the qualities listed above, Sturtevant states that you can become more authentic and enthusiastic while decreasing your stress levels. This, in turn, will have a positive effect on your students' learning experiences and enjoyment of school. When they say that joy is infectious, they aren’t kidding!

The book is one of many in a series of resources intended for educators who wish to be more effective at teaching.
