Some of us in education take a "Sex Panther" approach to research and data. "This intervention works 60% of the time, every time!"

I had a goal to try to tweet every day. Definitely been falling short of that with the realities of busy days and evenings. It's, thankfully, the best type of busy. It's the heart of eval season now, and I sincerely love the conversations about teaching and learning with staff.

The best gift I ever got as an educator (and, frankly, a person) was a stack of blank thank you notes and a reminder from my mentor about the power of a thank you. I always try to keep a stack in my desk. The best problem is running out and having to email instead. #Thankful

Admin life: things change drastically from what's planned to what's necessary. Meant to spend the day with PLCs but couldn't. PLCs still got amazing PD and a chance to collab for growth. Students needed support. Focus changed. Flexibility and adaptability were critical today.

As part of our SIP goal to increase small group instruction using data from formatives, our literacy coach has been pushing into classrooms modeling for/with teachers. Our literacy PLCs will be observing different examples of this today. Needless to say, I'm thoroughly excited!

We must all try to empathize before we criticize. Ask someone what's wrong before telling them they are wrong.

So I'm starting a student voice council at my elementary building. It will be a group of 4th and 5th graders that will meet with the vice-principal and I twice a month. Any advice or best strategies for getting the most out of it? #edutwitter

Set a goal for myself to answer every email before leaving for the weekend. Fell short of that goal at the end of the day today. Decided to call it and head home. I’ll make the time to address them this weekend. But for now, it’s pizza and movie night with the kids. Balance.

Major points of pride today: 1. First meeting of our student advisory team. We’ve got some amazing 7th graders, and I’m lucky to learn from them. 2. Admin walk throughs with fantastic math teachers and a ton of kids working hard to learn and grow in math. #BestWednesdayEver

Athletic supervision tonight. No matter how busy a work day was, I’m always rejuvenated after watching students perform—at sports, music, theatre, etc. It’s also exciting to see more students volunteering with concessions and finding ways to get involved and connected at school.

Busy week! Haven’t posted as often as I’d like. Highlights: wrapped up final 504 meetings, subbed a few classes, planned some PD with colleagues to help staff help students thrive in a regulated state. Lots done. Lots more to do!

An admin goal this year was more presence & interactions with students and staff. We got standing desks for our 1st and 2nd floors. It's a major boost for that goal. Plus, as I'm tweeting & pulling grade reports right now, I'm listening to orchestra sectionals practice--awesome!

Busy last few days focused on 504 meetings, evals, & reevals. I relish those opportunities though to sit down with families to work together to ensure students have as much support as they need to be successful. That partnership and focus is some of favorite my work.

It never ceases to amaze me as I reflect after each week just how much we as educators put into each day and each week with students. Rest up, school folks. You did so much this week—more importantly, so much of what you did made a positive impact on so many lives!
