Thoughts and musings of an educator. December 8, 2012. Finding a Common Language for Effective Supervision – Growth Plan Reflection. For our professional growth plans, my vice principal and I are sharing a goal this year. As part of the work we are doing divisionally, our goal is to implement supervision strategies to provide consistent and meaningful feedback to our teachers through a common and consistent language. To achieve this we are basing our work around Marzano’s book:. Three months in I am real...

If you're not having fun at school, you're not trying hard enough! Monthly Archives: November 2013. What I learned my first year on twitter. Getting started: We were lucky to have @stumpteacher in for an inservice day in my former district and he gave a fantastic presentation on what it meant to be a great teacher and encouraged all of our staff to start on Twitter. The best advice he gave about Twitter? I have learned to question a lot of practices we use in school and if they really benefit our student...

If you're not having fun at school, you're not trying hard enough! 5 things we need to stop pretending. 1 We need to stop pretending leadership is about power and titles. Ultimately, many don’t believe driving the speed limit is in their best interest and the risk of a ticket doesn’t change that. Why do we think playing a game of gotcha would work any better in our school? 2 We need to stop pretending carrots and sticks are the way to motivate students. Are test scores important? How is your attendance r...

If you're not having fun at school, you're not trying hard enough! Monthly Archives: January 2015. Want to be a truly great educator? I am an education nerd. My wife and probably many who work with me don’t understand why I would spend an evening on Twitter or Voxer talking education with peers around the country. I am there to connect with the best of the best. I have come into contact with many big ideas for the first time. A friendly greeting at the door. A shared laugh with a colleague. I’m goi...

Learning with my network. This is what we are talking about. February 18, 2013. Posted by Mrs. Campo. After watching Darren Kuropatwa’s #WhileWalking 66. Posted by Amy Burvall. In Google , I started thinking about tags as a part of digital literacy. I am not a very good user of tags. I have been struggling with choosing consistent, clear tags since Delicious switched away from stacks. I found the top 100 tag words look like this (see below for how this image was made):. How I made the Tagxedo:. I thought...

If you're not having fun at school, you're not trying hard enough! Monthly Archives: June 2015. How do you determine that your teachers are engaged in school improvement initiatives or just compliant? How many of you drive the speed limit? My guess is not many. Why is that? What if the consequence was higher? Would that change people’s driving habits? What does this have to do with school improvement? The cycle of school improvement in many places generally goes something like this…. One or two years lat...

If you're not having fun at school, you're not trying hard enough! Monthly Archives: December 2013. Stop trying to make your kids read. Stop trying to make your kids read… Really. Many practices in place in school today may lead to short term results for students, but what both the research and common sense tells us is that our schools are producing very few adults who love to read. In Donalyn Miller’s great book “ The Book Whisperer. What will our kids do if they have a choice? Here is my quick brainsto...
