And teachers will improve themselves IF that leadership makes teachers feel safe taking risks, if it values creativity, and if it trusts teachers ARE professionals. #keepgivingandgrowing

In true “giving and growing” fashion, I’ve decided to tackle something scary and new just in time to start a new school year. Started a blog. #nogrowthinyourcomfortzone #keepgivingandgrowing bit.ly/3WLFoy6

Give yourself and others grace. We all make mistakes, and in many cases, learning from mistakes leads to significant growth. Model it for your students. #keepgivingandgrowing
More than 200 educators have shared the early advice that had a lasting impact on their teaching. See what they had to say: edut.to/4cWQo2p
ALT “You are human. You will make mistakes when teaching. Let your students share in that problem-solving experience, and don’t feel you need to hide those mistakes. By doing this, you are teaching students humility, risk-taking, metacognitive skills, acceptance, and most of all that mistakes happen and our classroom is a safe zone for making those mistakes.” —Jenessa D, Educator

Thanks for sharing @susangbarber! My students will tell you I’m a big fan of writing in class too. And I love when my idiosyncrasies can be back by brain research.
