@Sanditeach4fun@GiftedTawk I felt exactly the same way. It was never my plan to become an administrator, but here I am in my third year as a principal in the school where I taught for 17 years prior. I’ve grown a ton and spend as much time in classrooms as I can.
@JasonAblin 25 years in the classroom and now in third year as principal. Made the choice in Year 8 to pursue National Board certification and have gone through process to keep it current along the way. Best choice I ever made in terms of improving my practice.
@GoGirlsGoBooks I was 9 and my brother 7. We would come home from school with no parents at home. Mom had all of the directions written for me to start preparing dinner. I did that starting at around 5:00 or so each day.
@crasidakis @WTBOTTCast 25 years as an elementary and middle school teacher, NBCT (original certification in 2002, renewed 2012, and completed MOC last year) and now in Year 2 as a principal. My biggest fear is losing touch with what it feels like to teach every day and willingly sub as needed.
New announcements from @GoogleEDU:
- schedule posts to many classes at once
- student engagement dashboard - see when Ss log on and what they do
- Only Ss in the class can join a Meet link in GClassroom and all teachers have admin privileges
