Givers advance the group.
Takers advance themselves (and hold the group back).

@LinsMeeker @TonySandersU46 We love when it’s a Dr. Lindsay day!

To watch students engage in conversations, build their vocabulary and stretch their thinking, all during play centers, makes my heart happy! It’s where the magical learning begins.

Integrating play into science, social studies and ELA gives children the chance to build oracy and deepen comprehension through authentic engaging experiences. @LinsMeeker @TonySandersU46 @EMERSONCUSD200 #playinvestigateact #playmatters #EmersonElementarySoars

Effective leaders don't feel the need to micromanage because they know their staff are the experts. They know their role is to sometimes mentor, but always support and encourage those they lead. Effective leadership is about getting the best out of those you lead!

If you have the opportunity to do amazing things in your life, bring someone with you.

Process art in kindergarten helps students plan, sequence and execute their creative masterpieces, all while building oracy. #playmatters #playinvestigateact

Our island jumped into action putting together 50 beds, giving everyone a good meal, providing a play area for the children, making sure people have the healthcare and support they need. We are a community that comes together to support immigrants.

Watching teachers step out of their comfort zones and implement play in literacy and math has been an absolute joy. They consistently share that their students are more engaged, and consequently, so are they! I work with THE BEST! #grateful #playinvestigateact #playmatters

Effective Leaders know that taking care of their staff IS putting students first.
