I once expected students to sit quietly for a 40 min lesson. I got frustrated when they got fidgety. This lead to me yelling.
Then I found myself fidgety after only 20 minutes on a PD Day. Everything changed. I changed from “delivering curriculum” to “discovering curriculum.”
On a day for the history books, @TheAmandaGorman delivered a poem that more than met the moment. Young people like her are proof that "there is always light, if only we're brave enough to see it; if only we're brave enough to be it."
Just heard a classroom of children sharing favorite quotes from Martin Luther King Jr & what it means to them! Proud of these Wildcats! “Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.” @WestGeneseeCSD #StrongerTogether
