WHAT IS YOUR
WORD??
Instead of meeting the needs of the students that come to ME in
MY classroom this year, I am going to your classrooms, the PLC room, and the
PDEC to carryout my new expectations as a liaison. My role is to foster and
support growth among the staff.
In my classroom, I created hundreds of anchor charts with my
students to foster growth. Bottom line… I
miss having anchor charts!! The
transition to using my computer or personal calendar/interactive notebook has
not been flawless and I STILL MISS MY ANCHOR CHARTS! Thankfully, Tona asked
each grade level to make an interactive bulletin board. Now I have an excuse to
put one my office without looking foolish! :-) I am in the process of making
TWO- one for me personally and one for the PLC room. Both of my interactive
bulletin boards will “give meaning and focus” in my new role and help me
achieve my goals-with an anchor chart & moving pieces. I can’t wait to
share them with you.
This is from Jon Gordon:
My friends Dan Britton and Jimmy
Page believe that one word can change our life. Dan and Jimmy are the
co-authors of Wisdom Walks, and they share a powerful concept in their chapter
“Just One Word.” Every year for 15 years before New Year ’s Day, they come up
with their word for the year that will give meaning and focus to their life.
They said they don’t randomly pick a word, but rather through reflection,
prayer and listening to their heart the word comes to them.
My word for this school year is INTENTIONAL! Why did I
choose this word? I chose this word because I must be intentional so I change
and grow. I am curious to know what your word is AND what are you being
intentional about?
