Quotables
- I have stopped talking about the tools and started talking about the function. I always ask what they are trying to accomplish.
- We need to make sure that what we believe about learning connects to what’s happening in the world.
- So often, what we do in schools and what we do in classrooms may or may not match up to what we believe about learning.
- Do our kids find joy in our classrooms and what is the source of that joy?
- We never need to fix students. We need to create the spaces and the experiences that remove the barrier.
- Really hone in on what you want to learn and how that impacts the learners in your classroom.
- How are we celebrating all of our learners and how are we celebrating learning more than achievement?
- If we really want to learn and we really want to do the best work for our kids, it isn’t just roses, it is kind of a lot of thorns too. You have to find the balance.
