When I need a pick-me-up, now more often than ever, & I need to be reminded of the MOST IMPORTANT things in my life, I rewatch Myles Martin reading the letter from his father Gregory Martin. Losing my own father & now being a father x3, this is important! youtu.be/vEWsOLcjzM0



Listening to Gary Vaynerchuk stress the importance of teamwork and building collective efficacy and then internalizing it from an EDUCATIONAL perspective seems mind-blowingly true: "Do you know how fast you can go when everybody feels safe and knows what everybody else is good at?"


Messages of HOPE! Much needed. Joe Sanfelippo is as engaging here as he is in his weekly messages on Twitter! #MEMSPA20

"People at home give us latitude because we never give them the best of us when we get home because we are still at school, we never turn off." Joe Sanfelippo's story about being unresponsive to his kids after school hit TOO CLOSE to home! #BePresent #MEMSPA20

"Short term is burnout and long term is hope!" Jimmy Casas #MEMSPA20

Great video from Jimmy Casas! It's critical to find the talents in others and change our perspectives! youtube.com/watch?v=SGExml… #MEMSPA20

"I am responsible for my own morale! No one else is in charge of that, even though others TRY to control it." Jimmy Casas #MEMSPA20


"Have the discipline to confront the most brutal facts of your current reality!" Paul Liabenow ending Day 1 of #MEMSPA20 with a bang (and a great reminder)!

Educators, if you’re not having fun, neither are your students. There’s nothing wrong with having fun during the storm. -Dr. Adolph Brown Dr. Adolph Doc Brown|Psychologist + Thought Leader #MEMSPA20 As a Norfolk, VA native myself, great to see the connections with Dr. Brown both attending ODU and William & Mary, too!


My favorite virtual teaching moment this year, just in time for #WinterBreak: a2Thurston’s Project Lead The Way teacher Mary Manthey literally baked cookies in her kitchen while on Zoom with her students to teach physical and chemical changes! Talk about glass half full!


Happy for you Carl Seward! Miss your energy and excitement!
