How often do we sit in a space unable to get a word out.... forced just to listen to another’s agenda.... how often does this happen for our kids? Those with the loudest voice aren’t always right #yesterday#cultureofsilence#beingunheard
Launching tomorrow. Excited to be kicking off our 12 Days of Positive Schools free webinar series with my thoughts on how this crazy unplanned social experiment might help us improve education https://t.co/be5NY8TSEN @PositiveSchools@GGSPosEd @BSEMaus @PosEdNet@CatholicEdWA
Agency is natural. It’s inherent. It’s intuitive. Kids have agency. Nurturing the conditions that foster agency in the classroom is of the upmost importance. It’s our mission as educators. Embrace questions & curiosity. Embrace play & movement & energy & voice. Embrace agency.
