If students are able to rely on the Internet to get answers, are we asking the right questions?

Google doesn't have answers. It has information. Students find answers through good thinking.

[Danny Steele @SteeleThoughts]

Being an instructional leader doesn’t always mean you are providing expertise in teaching and learning. Sometimes… it just means you are helping to shape the conditions in which your teachers can thrive. Sometimes, it’s just about building the right culture.

Culture is a competitive advantage. A team with a great culture seems to have an extra layer of strength, tradition, resilience, belief and power that allows them to perform at a higher level.

[Danny Steele @SteeleThoughts]

Sometimes, the most valuable thing educators provide for their students, is the structure, stability, and support that they don’t get at home.

[Jon Gordon @JonGordon11]

Grit? What is it? I believe it’s driven by love. Inspired by vision and purpose. Fueled by optimism and belief. Powered by faith and hope. Revived by resilience. Kept alive by stubbornness. And if we’re honest includes some fear of failure and desire to prove oneself.

[Jon Gordon @JonGordon11]

There’s a saying, “If the devil won’t make you bad he’ll make you busy.” He will distract you and cause you to focus on all the things that don’t matter instead of what does matter. Distractions are the enemy of greatness. Focus on what matters most!

[David Geurin @DavidGeurin]

Don’t wait for your district to offer a training. Don’t wait for your school to “develop” you.

You’re a talented professional and can take ownership of your learning.

Take full advantage of what your school offers, but be a continuous learner.

Own your learning.

Probably the best education advice I have ever heard:

“Teach every child like you’re their lifeline... like you are their last chance to succeed.”

@LCSforKids is so blessed to have @mrsjames78. She is a wonderful instructional leader in our district and we are so grateful for her! She led a FABULOUS Instructional Round for her school today. I’m so glad I had the opportunity to attend! 🤗👏🏽

The most important thing you can do when a child comes to school is greet him/her with a smile. What are your plans to welcome kids on day one? #CommonSenseLeadership #CelebratED🎉⭕️🎉 #Bettertogether

A positive approach to leading and coaching requires the habit to continually look for what's working and catch people doing things right.

[Jon Gordon @JonGordon11]

It’s imperative that you lead your team with optimism. Leadership is a transfer of belief. If you don’t have it you can’t share it.

“Grades have the ability to make kids feel stupid or smart, and that's a huge power" that should be wielded mindfully @LindaFlanagan2 https://t.co/3l3KqkKhwD #edchat #grading #assessment #teaching #teachchat

You don’t change culture through emails and memos. You change it through relationships… one conversation at a time.

[Jon Gordon @JonGordon11]

There's nothing more powerful than a humble person with a warrior spirit who is driven by a bigger purpose.

[Danny Steele @SteeleThoughts]

I recommend dealing with difficult people the same way you deal with your favorites: with kindness, patience, respect, and understanding.

[Michelle Mitchell @MLMItchell7]

@Johnboy_Wilson Thanks for sharing.
