2) Volition/ sense of autonomy
3) attention/ appreciation
4) emotional connection/ relationship
5) value within the team

Well last night I left the awesome Learning Forward conference and today I’m excited to be with @sethnbrown and @stevelassiter at a two-day meeting with TIF grantees from around the country to talk about and plan for sustainability.
We need to be focused on the learning for our educators. If you are in a school where teachers are learning, students are learning. #LearnFwd18@VBTitleI@VBPreK#KnowWhy
