Teachers love Admin who:
1) roll up their sleeves to help
2) Really Listen
3) Who are present: in classrooms, hallways, cafeteria, lunchroom
4) Value Teachers time (planning, meetings, after school)
5) Support/encourage them
6) check on/ check in with them
7) Have their back
Teachers NEED time, so we did our April staff meeting "take-out" style in order to give the gift of time!
Staff picked up their "take-out" boxes and can engage with this month's staff meeting content by scanning the QR codes! They also got a little treat inside their box 😉
Added a sticker every time a new student told me a fact about George Washington Carver! They loved it! Anything to get them motivated! A couple had fallen off before I could take a pic to send to @mrsbriwaters!
Teachers will buy-in more when you make decisions centered around how much is already on our plates. #Empathy. You can't pile on more work without taking something off.
That's why I love admin/supervisors who don't forget what it feels like to be in the trenches.
A colleague shared a video of a teacher putting stickers on her face every time a new student participated. I tried out the idea, and my classes were determined to get as many stickers on my face in an hour! Needless to say, I looked crazy by the end of it! 🤪 #whateverittakes
