3 Truths About Leadership:

1. Leadership isn’t about gaining power. It’s about empowering others.

2. Great leaders succeed because they bring out the greatness in others.

3. You don’t have to be great to serve but you have to serve to be a great leader.

Good morning PLN! After a relaxing break while travelling the country a bit, I am excited for tomorrow when I begin counseling at Camp Shriver and showing that INCLUSION is the most powerful choice we as humans can make! Five amazing weeks ahead of me at SONJ! #inclusion

“I’ve got a math problem for ya.”... “You came to the right guy grandpa.” The start of so many conversations when I was 3, 4, 5, 6 years old and so on with my grandfather. Today marks a time when I can truly back up… https://t.co/vJzY21nHpe

Student Traching Week 2 starts today! Time to continue building the relationship of last week!

[Brandon T Rickert @BTRickert97]

Excited to watch my first Timberlane Basketball Game as my first week of Student Teaching continues strong! 😎

As the school day rolls along, my cooperating teacher and I get into a groove and time seems to fly. What ways do you slow your day down and ground yourself for the remainder of the day and responsibilities? 🤔#PLN #tlap #satchat

[Brandon T Rickert @BTRickert97]

Could not be more happy with the placement that I have for Student Teaching! Day 2 and I am getting to know them as we both start conversations with each other throughout the day! The smiles and waves in the hallways are so welcoming. #Relationships

A4: Give them specific roles to fill and let them take ownership of a certain job that completes the task! (not just doing different things that then combining) #tlap

[Brandon T Rickert @BTRickert97]

A3: Show Ss that YOU care and value their struggles and pick them up! Kindness is contagious and those Ss in the class will pick up on it fast. Remember that CULTURE needs to be established from day 1! #tlap

[Brandon T Rickert @BTRickert97]

@iammrsnix Yes! Showing that we are human too and we make mistakes helps Ss see that it is okay! #tlap

[Chris Legleiter @clegleiter]

A2. We must help kids focus on the process- not the product. We must model challenges and learning from failure thru reflection and positivity. #tlap

[Brandon T Rickert @BTRickert97]

A2: When Ss are learning and working hard on discovering the answer and they hit a brick wall, they can analyze what may have gone wrong and gain a deeper understanding of the process and concepts behind what they are doing. Failure allows Ss to see the different paths! #tlap

[Brandon T Rickert @BTRickert97]

A1: I would say my professors, my cooperating teachers, and the amazing Ss that I have worked with during my time in school! #tlap

[Brandon T Rickert @BTRickert97]

Hi! Brandon from NJ, student teaching for secondary MATH this semester! #tlap
