5 things to tell teachers,

1. I value you & your grit, not test scores
2. You have the hardest job out there
3. You make YOU amazing, not any strategy
4. Thank you for placing your students' interests over your own
5. Your work has an unfathomable impact

Why do we need creativity in the classroom?
Thinking becomes visible...
Intangible becomes tangible...
Dreams become realities...
Thoughts become things...
Learning becomes fun...

Learning happens through the meaningful experiences we provide students, not through more intervention time or drills.

To change our schools, we have to stop doing more, and instead, change the experiences that shape learning. #education #teaching #creativity #SundayMorning

The most rewarding part of being a teacher is affirming the joy and pride your students experience when they succeed. #education #teaching #WednesdayMotivation

When hiring, successful school leaders don't ask, "will this teacher be the best fit?" They ask, "how will this teacher make us better people?" via #everydayinstructionalcoaching #TuesdayThoughts

The best ways we can safeguard teachers from burnout:
1. Value and respect them
2. Provide opportunities for them to grow in ways they want to grow
3. Promote creativity and say "yes" to their creative ideas

Classrooms are being transformed into learning studios, libraries into learning commons, physical spaces into virtual spaces. We not only need to respond to these shifts, we must shift our response to better lead innovation...via #everydayinstructionalcoaching #SundayMorning

Memorization of math facts, dates & places, parts of a cell, and spelling words, are not the essence of what we teach because facts & linearity are no longer sufficient for success.

Students need context, meaning, artistry, empathy, creativity, & inventiveness.#SundayMorning

When teachers and students discover their voice, they gain confidence and an increased desire to learn and spread their ideas. #SaturdayMotivation #education #teaching

We don't need more hours in school, we need to do school differently within those hours. #education #teaching #SundayMotivation

[Nathan Lang-Raad, Ed.D. @drlangraad]

A single, meaningful interaction with your students has a greater influence than all the strategies, tools, and initiatives combined. #Education #teaching #sunchat

[Nathan Lang-Raad, Ed.D. @drlangraad]

Awesome teachers don't plan the same thing as last year. They always question, "is there a better way? #satchat #edchat #education #teaching
