Conscious Efforts

I am going to make conscious efforts to..,

Replace the word ‘students’ with LEARNERS;
Replace the word ‘teacher’ with ‘Facilitator’, ‘Designer’ or ‘Inspiration’;
Replace ‘school’ and ‘classroom’ with ‘Learning Environment’, or ‘Home’ or ‘Community’;
Give the gift of ‘Yet’ more often’;
Let people know its about learners;
Reflect on conversations, plans and results intently;
Model the best of what we have and where we need to go;
Drop what isn’t benefitting facilitators and learners;
Help others find joy in serving ~~students~~ LEARNERS,;
Replace ‘classroom management’ and ‘expectations’ with ‘Understandings’;
Ask ‘Why’ and ‘What if’ daily;
Get my 15000 steps in by being all about my school;
Embrace the value and hard work of learner-centered > teacher-centered;
Commit to genuine conversations;
Listen a lot more;
Ask learners what made their day great and what we can do to make it better.
