If timed math tests and endless worksheets of drill and practice worked, we’d be a country of mathematical geniuses. Instead, the majority of our populace openly proclaims their hatred/fear of math.

Looking back on 2020... I thankfully finished my EdD. One day I might look back and think.. Dude, I finished my degree during a pandemic and think it is pretty cool. But I’m not there yet.

There are teachers who are strong, outspoken, highly motivated, and who like to take ideas and run with them or speak up when things aren’t working. Some admin are Intimidated by such teachers, but effective admin embrace them for the leaders that they are.

I am presenting the book studies with staff this semester via Google Classroom. Has anyone had success with this? If so, do you have any tips for me? I am kind of excited about it! #instructionalcoach

#ThriveThroughTheFive is not only an incredible book about educational leadership - it’s an incredible book about life and how to overcome the challenges we face.

Thank you, @jillmsiler, for the amazing example you’ve set and for reminding us to always lead with heart!
