When I get on the plane and they ask us to raise the windows for take off, I’m like, “So y’all really are depending on us to look out there to see if something is going wrong?” 😳
One of the first steps in connecting with a challenging student… is to LIKE them, rather than “put up” with them. It’s amazing how the attitude of the adult can affect the attitude of the kid.
I think the most powerful instructional leadership can be seen in the collaboration of teachers who are motivating each other to raise the bar. Positive peer pressure from colleagues is more meaningful than supervisory pressure from administrators.

When you focus on being good to the people you work with… there’s a decent chance you will end up being great at your job. They may remember your ideas; they may remember your skill; they will always remember how you treated the people with whom you worked.
#ThoughtForTheDay Imagine if there was no front of the classroom? No teacher desk or projector? Rather than student desks u had tables & more open space? Natural light? Carpet instead of tile? No whiteboards but white walls? Imagine....or better yet, time 2 Reimagine. #Culturize
When you truly listen to students… they may end up learning more. Listening leads to understanding. Understanding generates compassion. Compassion fosters relationships. Relationships facilitate learning.
#ThoughtForTheDay Over the years there were times when I would ask a struggling student, "How come u didn't come talk to me or any adult?"Perhaps I was asking the wrong Q. Maybe the Q should've been, "I wonder why the student didn't come talk to me or an adult?" #Trust#Culturize
