You can be both confident and humble. Humble knowing there is a God and it’s not you. Confident knowing you were made in God’s image and He has a plan for your life.
@LollyDaskal, a group of teacher leaders in my school district have decided to complete a book study of The Leadership Gap! Any great resources that we might look into beforehand?
What a successful first #writeaboutitwednesday! Students wrote about the difference between place and value and how to compare two whole numbers. We definitely have a group of writers!
If there’s one thing I learned in my years as an administrator, it was that teachers are a great source of expertise and experience. Some of the best leaders I have ever met were teachers in the classroom. They are passionate and devoted to their kids and to learning.
EdGal now works with Google Classroom! Teachers can link their class and assignments into GC. This will allow students to see their EG assignments when logged into GC and for the results to sent to the teacher through GC. Whatcha think? #teachertwitter
Every time you communicate, you run the risk of being misunderstood. That reality shouldn’t discourage you from communicating; it should underscore the value of continued conversation.
It’s easier to throw stones than it is to make tough decisions.
And sometimes... being a leader involves coming to terms with the fact that any decision you make will be the “wrong” one to a whole lot of people.
Virtual open houses & recorded teacher intros. These are 2 things we’re doing now that we prob should’ve been doing all along. We’ve always had families not able to make it to the school building. Let’s not forget this if things ever go back to “normal.” #familyengagement
This is one of the most complicated and challenging times for education, but also an exciting opportunity to enhance #equity, compassion, #relationships, differentiation, engagement, and #Feedback
Courageously, collaboratively, and creatively persevere with a #GrowthMindset.
@wokeSTEMteacher My husband and I actually taught on the same campus for a year! We both teach in the same district that we met and both graduated from.
