I was a teacher for (many) years before discovering I really wasn't teaching. I was talking, assigning, grading. And I thought I was teaching. Truly. I wasn't. I didn't start teaching until I learned to respond to each kid's learning. That is where/when I become a teacher.

The most effective leaders know: * they don’t always have to be right * they aren’t always smartest person in room *Other people may have better ideas * conflict can be healthy & productive. * to be grateful. * they're there to serve, not be served.

Classroom management means I manage the only person I control. Do I stay calm when he gets upset? Am I respectful to disrespectful people? Do I take the behavior personally? Am I allowing the behavior to control my emotions? Do I see it as an annoyance or a challenge?#thatonekid

I walked around my school today. Everyone was doing something. I don’t know if it hit the standards. I don’t know if there were learning targets. But teachers and kids were happy. And sometimes that’s what matters most. Okay, always, that’s what matters most.

While the coaches were talking about how to motivate the Mishawaka Cavemen, they heard a roar in the locker room. Little Sam Lewinski gave an impromptu speech. It worked as Mishawaka ran the opening kick back for a TD. @ESPN #OurPeopleSCm
