Classroom Teacher: Reality Check

Classroom Teacher: Reality Check

November 2, 2014

The view from down here. “It all falls on the classroom teacher, it always does” she reminded me. This was my mother. A retired elementary school teacher, who had made it the long haul. In the classroom for her entire career, advocating for kids, mentoring new teachers- reminding me when I express frustration in the system that, I shouldn’t be… Read More

New Year’s Resolutions & Goal Setting Success

New Year’s Resolutions & Goal Setting Success

How do your students self-asses?

April 1, 2013

Lately, I’ve found myself having conversations with many educators who think self-assessment is a good idea… but just aren’t sure about putting it into practice.

When I collect and correct too much, I lose the ability to catalog and analyze and make instructional decisions based on… Read More

Week 3 Challenge: Creating an Environment of Respect & Rapport

March 10, 2013

‘An Environment of Respect & Rapport’… This is an area I find myself discussing quite often with teachers. At least once a week, I have conversations with teachers about how tricky they find this particular domain/ standard to assess. Recently, I attended a presentation about how some teachers and mentors are tackling this very topic. Before we think about how… Read More

If you are a teacher or a parent, I feel strongly that this should be required listening. Maybe not today. You might not be ready. But definitely by next week. I learned some things about what we do to keep our kids safe at school that surprised me AND will lead me to CHANGE my behavior. We can ABSOLUTELY make things happen as moms. There’s NO stronger group of humans. I am sure of that. #wecandohardthings #momsdemandaction ... See MoreSee Less
