A2 This is one of my biggest successes of 2017. True #stuvoice through a student podcast. A special moment that touched classrooms near and far. #122edchathttps://t.co/b9m7Bqy56p
A2: Greatest success? Definitely has to be connecting globally with good people from around the globe. Has stretched me not only as a teacher, but as a leader and as a dad. #122edchat
A2: My greatest success of the year was finally doing a better job of aligning my values with my main missions in life, and taking consistent action on my goals. #122edchat

A3- I think my biggest regret is falling out of my good eating habits and putting on some of the weight I lost. Need to control my stress eating!! #122edchat
You are an inspiration for everyone that you come into contact with, Bronwyn. I will never forget shouting at you over dinner in Minneapolis. You motivate me to keep fighting. #122edchat
A3: I didn't have a clear classroom management plan when I started the year and had to work extra hard to fix it...but it's much better now! #122edchat
Just like we talked about IRL. We need to view ourselves through the eyes of our students. They love us...even if they do not show it. We need to view ourselves in the same manner. #122edchat
A3: Not taking chances with tech sooner! but I'm steadily growing! & Stop worrying about what everyone else is doing and worry about what works for my Ss instead. #122edchat

A4: Working on my confidence outside the classroom. I have so many big plans for myself, but I need a little boost of self-esteem to help get me there. #122edchat
Long road ahead of you. Learn from my mistakes. You do not need to accomplish everything in year one. Bits and pieces over the course of your career. Sleep is a gift. #122edchat
A4: Several things, #122edchat. 1) Need to be a better dad/husband. 2) Leave work at work. 3) Get more thoughts on paper. Good thing I have 365 days to get this straight.
#122edchat is winding down, but #betheone with @sheehyrw is just about to launch. You can hang around for another 15 minutes, right?! Thanks to everyone that has helped make 2017 a success for this community of learners! Best wishes for a successful 2018. See you all on 1/10/18!
Q4: I will be so incredibly mindful of of my surroundings and how I'm feeling. I'm prepared to take care of myself and those around me (students, family, friends). I will learn to take life one step at a time and to enjoy the small things. #122edchat

A2: Shared this earlier in #122edchat. We need to view situations, and ourselves even, through the eyes of our students. They love us, so we need to love us, too. #BeTheOne
