@KellySoliz @Nechamkin "Whatever your role in your school is, commit to being a leader worth following." I am going to strive to be an educator/leader worth following. I am going to step outside my comfort zone and hope that others will follow.

@KellySoliz @Nechamkin My stories are expositories & are not always the most exciting. I work with my ELA team on the articles I find to go along with the TEKS they are working on. The internet is great, I have to put the work in but the articles are there.

@KellySoliz @Nechamkin Agree, to a point. I think that it helps the interactions I have with my colleagues. We need to be professional, but it is okay to have fun. It can help take down walls. We still need to be professional. #WylieBookStudy #KidsDeserveIt #WylieLearns

@JBRobertson1994 @Nechamkin @TechNinjaTodd @mradamwelcome @KellySoliz I also like to leave little notes. Simple and easy, but makes such an impact. People love to know they are appreciated.

@Nechamkin @TechNinjaTodd @mradamwelcome @KellySoliz The last big dream I had was to write a mystery novel. I have started, but that is about it. The other is to start a BBQ Food Truck. #WylieBookStudy #KidsDeserveIt #WylieLearns

@Nechamkin @TechNinjaTodd @mradamwelcome @KellySoliz I read a story about someone I look up to and how he struggled and wanted to quit. His dad wrote a response "Forget yourself and get to work." Education is bigger than me. My team deserves it and The Kids Deserve it. That is what keeps me going. #WylieBookStudy #KidsDeserveIt

@Nechamkin @TechNinjaTodd @mradamwelcome @KellySoliz My favorite thing to do outside of school is to cook, BBQ, and grill. I cook for my school family frequently, it is a way that I know I can celebrate them. I love to cook for family and friends. #WylieBookStudy #KidsDeserveIt #WylieLearns

@Nechamkin @TechNinjaTodd @mradamwelcome @KellySoliz One of my favorite things about being an educator is building relationships with my students, and helping them not just with education, but with life skills.
I am also blessed to work with a great school family. #WylieBookStudy #KidsDeserveIt #WylieLearns

@RickBGreen13 @CoachPittsMJHS @Nechamkin @KellySoliz Agreed. Kids can tell if you care or not. If you show you don't care you have lost them. They need to know you care, it is a must.

@AlgebraLove @Nechamkin @TechNinjaTodd @KellySoliz I to had to step out of my comfort zone when I started using Google Classroom, but know I love it and the students have more choice in the order things get done and they are more engaged.

@Nechamkin @TechNinjaTodd @KellySoliz Q8: I have delegated more and have tried to be open to new ideas from my colleagues so that I am not on an island. But I also keep the expectations high and try to lead by example to get the best from them for our students.

@Nechamkin @TechNinjaTodd @KellySoliz Q1: I want to do more hands on learning. Projects, Research, Webquests, etc... give more discovery to my students and technology. #WylieBookStudy #KidsDeserveIt #WylieLearns

Q5 Relationships: being more involved activities. I talk to the kids specifically about their instrument, I volunteer to go on the band field trips, and I talk to directors so I can know what's going on. #WylieBookStudy #KidsDeserveIt #WylieLearns
