@SteeleThoughts “What’s most important is that teaching is visible to the student, and that the learning is visible to the teacher.” - John Hattie

This will go a long way towards improving learner experience.

Teachers don't need to get better at managing their workload...teachers need a more realistic workload.

[Danny Steele @SteeleThoughts]

Principals want teachers to be sensitive to the “WHOLE child.”

Well principals need to be sensitive to the “WHOLE teacher.”

Maslow’s theory was not just about kids; it applied to ALL humans.

Teachers… I wonder what your students are coping with at home this weekend.

Principals… I wonder what your staff is coping with at home this weekend.

It will matter when we see them on Monday.

Admin, this fall remember that it's not just students who experience trauma. You have staff members experiencing it too. Know your staff so you can help or at least let them know you are there for them. That can make a huge difference.

[David Geurin @DavidGeurin]

Great school culture is not an accident.

It happens when we recognize that we all depend on each other.

And then work together to create supportive, caring conditions for everyone—students, teachers, support staff, guests, everyone!

[David Geurin @DavidGeurin]

You’re not going to like everyone you encounter.

But you can treat everyone you encounter with all the care and concern of people you like.

Kindness is a behavior, not a feeling.

Kids won’t build a habit of reading if they don’t enjoy what they’re reading. Please let kids read whatever they want 😊.

[Danny Steele @SteeleThoughts]

Teachers… 10 years from now, students will remember your kindness more than your pedagogy.

Principals… 10 years from now, teachers will remember your kindness more than your strategic plan.

@BrettLobben @PDBrunn @CollabClassroom Oh so true!

[David Geurin @DavidGeurin]

The best leaders want to know if they do something that makes someone else feel devalued, disrespected, or unsupported.

Leaders, let your staff know: “I will never intentionally disrespect you, but if I do, I want you to tell me so I can correct it.”

[David Geurin @DavidGeurin]

Some things we should teach kids that aren’t in the curriculum…

1. Using your strengths
2. Asking for what you want
3. Disagreeing respectfully
4. Trying your best
5. Taking risks
6. Embracing diversity
7. Practicing gratitude

Why is it that all young mammals learn through play?
Because it works.
Why is it so hard for adults to understand this?
