Hearing students talk about ways to improve school culture and the importance of mental health is both powerful and energizing to keep working to make a better place for ALL students! Great times at Student Voice Institute! #ATOY20

Interesting read from EdWeek about what companies are looking for in students in a post-pandemic world.
Key themes:
SEL skills - Resilience, Collaboration, perseverance/growth mindset

Snow may have delayed the Love Teaching Week teacher lounge takeovers, but it didn’t stop 2020 ATOY Joel Lookadoo from hosting makeup events at Pinnacle View Middle (LR) and Glenview Elementary (NLR) last week. Many thanks to AEA and ASTA for sponsoring the events! #TeachArkansas

These @EducatorsRising regional events are great opportunities for students to learn more about the teaching profession and to have fun through some competitions. Be sure to check the link for more info and get involved. @ArkansasEd #ATOY20

Incredible 3 days of learning with teacher leaders focused on finding and using your voice

[Joel Lookadoo @CoachLookadoo]

Our greatest and fastest learning often occurs with those we have the greatest connection with. Applies to adults building their own network and for students in class. Relationships matter. #ATOY20 #TLI @ARleadAcademy

[Joel Lookadoo @CoachLookadoo]

Teachers are worth investing in, not just their content knowledge but their whole self. So thankful for @ARleadAcademy and Amanda Linn for their investment into building teacher leaders. #teacherleadershipinstitute #ATOY20

[Joel Lookadoo @CoachLookadoo]

@dcbrac Yes sir! Connections will lead us to student mastery of the content. And more joy in the work!

[Joel Lookadoo @CoachLookadoo]

Really enjoyed @mlgotcher today at ArkASPA conference! Dr. Gotcher talking about hiring/interviewing educators post-pandemic... ?s should focus on Empathy, Resilience, and Adaptability.
Makes me think - are we doing enough to develop these skills in students and adults?

[Joel Lookadoo @CoachLookadoo]

I’ve learned many lessons from students-2 of my fav are the power of belief & the importance of mistakes. I’ve been inspired by many students who have grown so much by believing in themselves & those around them, knowing that mistakes are part of the process #LoveTeaching #ATOY20
