@DSpyksma @DanBeerens @JTHorlings @justinmcook @d_mulder @RosePillay1 @JerTinsley @tdwilliams90 @MisterCavey @MikeRiez @DarrenL_PCS I lean on Parker Palmer’s wisdom here: “as I teach, I project the condition of my soul onto my students, my subject, and our way of being together.” In the togetherness is where our students want to know and be known.

C-19 Ed thought of the day: What if one of our roles as educators is to look for anxiety in others and walk closely with them as a non-anxious presence? @DanBeerens @JTHorlings @justinmcook @d_mulder @RosePillay1 @JerTinsley @tdwilliams90 @MisterCavey @MikeRiez @DarrenL_PCS

Super proud of our #TeachingforTransformation gallery walk displays showing off the work SWCHS teachers have put in to their deep hope and course storyline invitations for our students. Parents got a chance to see what beautiful faith and learning integration can look like.

"To name God's story is not enough; teachers and students need to be active in the story while they learn. TfT is a compilation of practices that empower teachers and learners, the people of God's story, to be active within the story." – @DarrylDeboer

A few years back, I started to get paired up with @ThorBenson5 on projects at work. Since then, he's become a professional soulmate. A great chart that gives shape to what I've experienced.

A lesson it took me too long to learn: Liking someone does not mean you'll like working with them... or work well with them. When choosing collaborators, don't forget to consider how dependable they are—and whether they have different skills but similar values.

Honored to have my sister Krista, an ER doctor in NJ, share her experiences of helping patients navigate COVID-19 with my SWCHS students today. A huge thank you to all the health care workers for your service!… instagram.com/p/B--6TFRAFJg/…

Still in awe of the adventure captured aboard the high-altitude balloon system we launched @swchsstars to 80,500’ Friday. Real STEM work for our students & faculty in the construction, launch, chase & retrieval. #deeperlearning #higherlearning #curiousdesigners #TfT #HAB

@PeterWelle I have loved his 12- episode podcast of his Justice course from Harvard. Definitely worth a watch.

A tremendous read. Clarifying and provoking - like sitting in on a great political philosophy college course.

What a privilege to have the grandparents of my students join us for biology. Memorable to hear about their HS biology experiences...the study of life and its Creator is unforgettable. #lifelonglearners #standingroomonly #deeperlearning #neverstoplearning #teach-’em&reach-’em
