Control what you can.

[Jon Gordon @JonGordon11]

You can complain about things you can't control or you can control what you can control and let go of what you can't. You can focus on your problems or focus on getting better. You can look for an excuse or you can look within and find your best.

COVID has caused a sudden obsession with making sure kids have “stuff” to do. Teachers are feeling the pressure to fill high amounts of live class time with compliance based lectures that fail to cultivate mastery. Keeping kids busy is not the same thing as keeping kids engaged.

[Brian Mendler @BrianMendler]

Best advice I ever learned from my mom, a 37 year retired educator: “If you always do & say what’s best for KIDS there will always be a place for you in education. & you will piss multiple people off along the way. Get used to it.” More true now than ever. #thatonekid
