I assumed the kids got together at night to figure out ways to make my life a living hell. I didn't realize until years later that the problem wasn't that the kids were trying to make me miserable. They were trying to make the time pass faster. I didn't understand the connection until years later, when I observed the classrooms of talented, skilled practitioners. If there is a common characteristic of the very best classrooms, it is that kids are taken seriously.
Superb teachers strive constantly to imagine how things look from the child's point of view.
Education Now and in the Future will offer participants two days of interactive, skill-building sessions designed to inspire and educate. The conference aims to improve the skills and performance of practitioners who can positively affect student learning and outcomes.
