Quit calling Art, PE, Music, Theater, etc…electives.
They are the essential areas that allow most kids to thrive.
Call them what they are: Essential
Areas

Our students need more recess, unstructured play, Physical Education, all the Arts, and extracurricular activities! That's how we make their social/emotional health a priority.

@MrNunesteach Yes, a ton this Summer.

If what you’re actually asking is, “Are we teaching students about race and racism?” then the answer is and should be yes.

Whenever I tell a stranger I’m a teacher, 9/10 times they tell me about their favorite teacher and usually have a quote or memory that has stuck with them.

Just a reminder that our work matters, even if you don’t think it’s making a difference or it feels fruitless. It matters.

The thing about teaching is one day they’re driving you crazy with wild behavior

& the next day they say “I’m giving you a hug because I’m in a hugging mood”

& you just have to be ready for both at any given moment.

I have never worked in a district with a spring break and my retired educator mother likes to send me her vacation pictures every year.

It's karma for me being naughty as a child, right?

It takes time to become a highly effective teacher. It also takes time to become a highly effective administrator. Both need patience, support, encouragement, praise and effective mentoring.

Got to lead some staff development @PotosiSchools using @ToddWhitaker What Great Teachers Do Differently today and it was awesome!

Great conversations, learning, and a morale boost for us!

[Todd Whitaker @ToddWhitaker]

The minimum goal of professional development is for teachers to be more excited about teaching tomorrow than they were today. #MLDSchat

Good leaders know their stuff. Great leaders know their stuff and their staff.

When people are absent, I send a message to let them know that we are thinking about them and to make sure they take care of themselves.

Today, I stayed home sick. The messages poured in of people telling me to take care of myself.

A caring culture is contagious.

There's no standard student and there's no standard teacher. Everyone has talents, passions and the potential to be amazing.

Preach it!

I became an educator because I love kids. I became an administrator because I love adults who love kids.

For me, it’s the people, not the positional power. It’s always the people.

teaching is a sacred profession not bc of educators being martyrs (we’re not) or saviors (we should never be) but bc of its proximity to children, who are the most sacred things on this damn planet
