  1. Wow!

    What if your principal wrote up something that could be shared with other principals? I feel like this could be very helpful for us. As teachers, we do our best to educate our administrators and colleagues, but if we are lone wolves in a building or district there is no other frame of reference for the administrator other than this one teacher “being creative.”

    Sometimes they don’t get it because they can’t (yet).

    So if principals who “get it” could reach out to other principals…???

  2. Jen you are right. Today he came in and did an “informal” eval. Out of the blue! I felt a slight pressure but continued as planned with my level ones creating the story.

    I had doubts but when I started doing TPR as a brain break, he got his phone out and started taping the class. At our school, we encourage parents to sign a release form since it is the district honors middle school. I was like, “Okay this is good, he is going to show me off when he meets with other people. Awesome.”

    It’s all a little scary to be at a new frontier in my career. I am being vocal instead of hiding in the dark about my work. I’ve struggled with being in the lime light (any kind really), but I know that this work will heal me.

  3. Steve I really am happy that we got to meet in person in Moraga because now I know after meeting you that you are going to not only meet the challenges you describe above with principals whipping out cell phones on you and all that, you will exceed those challenges. You are that kind of person. Love reading what is happening in your classroom these days. Fly high, my friend.
