The more the student becomes the teacher and the more the teacher becomes the learner, the more successful the outcomes are...
True leaders know leadership is not about them but about those they serve. It is not about exalting themselves but about lifting others up...
When we block everything & try to control every aspect of schooling, we are sending a very loud "trust issue" message to our students...
Nothing stops an organization faster than people who believe the way you worked yesterday is the best way to work tomorrow...
You don’t drown by falling in the water. You drown by staying there...
Don't fear the unknown & don't fear standing out... it's those who stand out who ultimately stand up...
Today I will do what others won't, so tomorrow I can do what others can't...
Young kids love school... they smile down the halls... they run to class & hug their teachers. Then they stop... they stop it all...
Want to keep most people happy, then do nothing & avoid change. Want to make your best people upset, follow the same rule.
No matter how many mistakes you make, or how slow you progress, you are still way ahead of everyone who isn’t trying...
Technology won't replace teachers...but teachers who use technology will probably replace teachers who do not...
It's not what kids "know" that's important, it's how they can apply, demonstrate, explain and transfer the "known" that's important...
An assessment is supposed to give info, to be used like a thermometer, NOT a hammer. It's a tool for the teacher & kid for teaching...
The only two people you should ever compare yourself with is the person you used to be & the person you want to be...The most important information & "data" you will get from a student won't come from a worksheet or a test, it will come from a relationship...
If you aren't excited about the activities & instructional units you are doing in your class, then your students won't get excited either...
Forget STEM... start talking about STEAM... science, technology, engineering, ARTS, & math...
