“If you feel as though you’re constantly hitting roadblocks with your students, maybe it’s time to transform your expectations for what’s possible in the classroom.” -Dave Burgess #tlap

I am Obe Hostetter, ITRT in Harrisonburg, Virginia. I am thrilled to have experienced using the Ricoh Theta S 360 camera this past year and I look forward to using it more. Another check off my bucket list was to build myself a stone back porch #tlap
Didn't really realize it was on my bucket list but if I were to go back I would add it. I started #kidness180 this year and has been a journey for sure. #tlap
My #oneword2018 is balance. Bought a treadmill, started planning meals & need to take better care of myself. I always seem to come last which is plain dumb. #ICanDoIt#tlap
Hi #tlap! Melissa from Mississippi here. Instructional tech. Plans have been set to scratch off #1 on my bucket list- taking my girls and me to Disney World for 1st time ever in March.
A1: Always a day for family snuggles & quiet before the grind returns. Spouse is a chef, so it’s a rare day of togetherness between Thanksgiving & Valentines #tlap
A1: Walk through every single classroom, the cafeteria, etc. As many reconnections and smiles as possible. I want staff and students to know they have been missed and they are back to their home away from home! #tlap
A1: My beginning of the year routine starts with a #oneword reflection post (https://t.co/fTfwHEroQ8) and filling in a new calendar for my wall. Also spending New Year's Day enjoying time with my 3 kids! #tlap
A1 My #oneword2018 is BALANCE. Just starting the New Year with a fresh start. Love just getting organized and cleaning stuff out. Also finishing personal projects like scrapbooking of 2017 (finished this morning) #tlap
A1: A "new year" in the middle of a school year has always been so hard for my brain to understand. Embracing a different mindset this year, reflecting and planning so the second half of the school year tops the first! #tlap
A1: After reading #KidsDeserveIt, I will be leaving each S a positive note when they come back from the break letting Ss know things that I love about them. #tlap
A1..my resolution every year is to grow professionally. No different this year. My goal is to read a new leadership book each month and put ideas into practice. #tlap
A1: Our family’s new year tradition starts with Haagen-Daz ice cream New Year’s Eve and then I make black eye peas for New Year’s Day. Everyone has at least one for good luck. #tlap
A1: I'm not as good as I want to be, nor as good as I'm going to be. Just thankful that I'm a little better than I use to be. Continue on a character journey on how I live my life in 2018. #tlap
A1: I don't set resolutiins...i set my action steps and this year i begin with my new #oneword2018 which focuses my steps...i will find a visual, music etc to wrap around my daily routines...going to start the days #intentionally with gratitude proccess #tlap
A1: Get my workout in, keep positivity & kindness in my heart and new learning in my head, attack a stack of books to read, and plan to wake up everyday with a smile as I face new challenges willingly! #AllMeansAll#JoinTogetherJanuary#tlap#ssdpride#warriorscreate
A1- Taking care of myself this year. Working on personal kindness challenges so I don't burn myself out. Also, finding my confidence again and getting that no holding back attitude back. #tlap
A1: I always like to start the year reflecting on my failures and successes both personally and professionally and finding ways to do better and be better as a person! Oh and exercise for a solid week or two ;) #tlap
A1: I’m going to start tomorrow off with a climate survey to see how we are going to start off the new year. Then we will build a wordwall of our one word for 2018 #tlap
All set to start off the new year with a curiosity hook. @burgessdave#tlap After I intrigue them enough. Open it to reveal a laptop which will bridge the discussion to cyber bullying.
A1- back to school but not going to do the same ol things! Was so inspired by #ditchsummit, @mrmatera@PaulSolarz that my creative juices are flowing! #tlap
#tlap I always begin the year with reflection: how much has happened since the last year... With my sons, I now reflect how much they have grown since last year too!
A1) Getting rest but taking the time to get things ready. School years are like seasons for me, take care of body, mind, self, and staying disciplined. #TLAP
A1: BY routine - personally: get reflective - and create via sketching, art or journaling about my dreams and thanksgiving, then I write notes to people who have made a positive impact on my life to say thanks. #tlap
A1: I clean and organize (emptied out the old from the dresser) to get things in order for the new year. This year I’ve also been reading and getting energized to return to school. #tlap
A1: I like to reflect on the year that was and set monthly goals that I can accomplish personally and professionally. A new year means new beginnings, new opportunities and new challenges. Let's get after it! #tlap
A1: Looking back at where I came from. Cutting dead weight. Realizing where I want to go and doing everything I can to get there. Also starting off the year with passion for what’s ahead. #tlap
A1: I jumped on the #OneWord2018 bus and chose "thrive" (I need focus on some days!) My general routine is to reflect on fall semester before planning spring semester. #tlap
Angela- MS Science Teacher, Chicago Suburb, Got rid of everything expired in my fridge, pantry and Med cabinet! Small step to bigger goal of eating better in 2018! #tlap
Hi! Getting here a few minutes late. 3rd-5th Principal from Central IL.
A1: Routine includes reviewing goals and getting organized to tackle those goals. #tlap
A1: Reflecting on the past year, recognizing my struggles and successes. Setting goals to continue growing and learning! Also cleaning my bedroom and classroom. lol #Tlap
A1: My first goal is usually to make some goals. Sometimes I'm better at it than others. This year, I'm looking forward to investing a little more time into the process. #TLAP
A1: Establishing my #oneword2018 provides focus and direction for my year. I'm focused on being the best I can be while helping others reach their own greatness with my new word for 2018: Bestness #tlap#leadlaphttps://t.co/JN3HEBGpIR
Happy New Year!
A1: I like to reflect on my one word from the previous year, and revisit my blog posts. I try to have a new word/focus by New Year's Eve each year. Oh...and
Black eyed peas, cabbage, hog jowl, cornbread (southern girl)
#tlap#JoyfulLeaders
A1: My #oneword is connect (both in person and via Twitter) And i like to reflect on what ive done so far, and how i plan to move forward with the rest of the year #tlap
A1: I like reflecting on what I accomplished the previous year & setting goals for the new year! More of a to-do list & less of a resolution! I find that writing it down helps me focus on accomplishing new things! #tlap
A1: We are on block, so I will get all new students this week. I try to add something new to my classes every semester - last semester it was a video of the day. #tlap
A1: The first thing I do is reflect on the past year’s objectives. Then, I set 2018 objectives (both personal & professional) and share them with accountability buddies. #tlap
A1: This year my wife & I set realistic goals instead of trying to be too lofty to just fail 4 Days in (like I usually do 😳) — Like... “No more Dr. Pepper”... yeah right!! #tlap
A1. First house must be spotless NYE so on NYD it starts clean. Dinner we eat black eye peas and Brussels sprouts and discuss our accomplishments and our fails. Then we come up with resolutions. This year we each came up with one word!
#tlap A 1: Kids come back Wed. tomorrow, I am going in to ready my classroom! I didn't take down our Christmas door decoration or put up my Jan. calendar. I'll probably put out arrival activities, too. When Ss arrive, procedures/expectations!!
I am SOOO excited for you! 2018 is going to be an amazing year for you, Tisha!! You are SO inspiring! I can't wait to add your book to my DBC bookshelf! #tlap
In reply to
@tishrich, @burgessdave, @burgess_shelley
A1: I haven't set a word or goal so much this year. I'm balancing a bit with professional and personal life so I'm cognizant of not overwhelming myself w/ fads and prioritizing what's best for students and my family 🙂 #tlap
A1: If I can bring myself to get out of my bathrobe by noon, I honestly just can't wait to hug and high five my students again. I miss those kids like crazy! #tlap
A1: I want to try out an EDU-protocol that I learned from @jmattmiller#DitchSummit from @Joncorippo . I want to do the one where kids come in and take quiz every day to start class and then we fill in the gaps. "I quiss beacuse i Care" #tlap
A1: Determine my 1-Word focus for the year.
F inalize your goal
O rder your plans
R isk failing by taking action
W elcome mistakes
A dvance based on your character
R evaluate your progress continually
D evelop new strategies to succeed
#FORWARD#oneword2018#leadlap#tlap
Q2: Goals and resolutions are great!! To us, a bucket list is something a little different. What is different...and maybe powerful...about creating a bucket list? #tlap
Yes! This is my mantra as well for the new year! BALANCE. Need to get back on track with taking care of myself... Daily walks are good for body and soul! #tlap
Scrapbooking! I love that! I used to be a Creative Memories consultant a million years ago. Love, love, love the stories behind the photos! Such a treasure for you and your family! #tlap
A1: I like to start the year out being open to seizing new experiences and opportunities. I want to say yes more to things that might have scared me in the past. #tlap
Answer 1: reflection on what worked, the willingness to change what I need to, and the ability to try new and innovative ways of engaging students #tlap
A1: We have had three weeks off, I usually try to find a fun activity to get the kids back into gear. In the past, I have the kids design posters or create graphics. I am still looking for something fun for next Monday. #tlap
A1: I try not to do anything earth shattering in the new year. Instead, I try to be just a little bit better than I was yesterday. After 365 days of doing this, I have seen slow, incremental improvements in my routines, mindfulness, reading habits, and #productivity#tlap
A1B- my one word is CALM. I don't have to do it all. I don't have to say yes to everything. I have a couple of goals for this year and I am not committing to anything big until I meet those goals. #tlap
A1: Don't know that is call it a routine, but reflect on what's happened in the past year and what I should strive for in the upcoming semester/year. #tlap
A1: MY one word is Light… It covers so many aspects of my life… I want to shed LIGHT on what I don’t know… I want to add a LIGHT heartedness and joy to my classroom and I want to be LIGHT and agile in learning new things in 2018 #TLAP
A2: Bucket Lists are things that may not be immediate and might not seam right for where you are right now... but you definitely want to do it. Out of the Box #tlap
A1: Trying to decide my #oneword for 2018, watching football, black-eyed peas and cabbage, and sleeping as late as I can before going back to work. #tlap
A2: A goal is something you work towards and would like to meet to progress personally or professionally. A bucket list item is usually something that challenges you or pushes you to get better. #tlap
A2: Tangible. I think the actual process of knowing these are things I want to check off not just hope for. They are longer term. Resolutions tend to be one year long a bucketlist seems like there is no limit. #tlap
Q2: Goals and resolutions are great!! To us, a bucket list is something a little different. What is different...and maybe powerful...about creating a bucket list? #tlap
Hi #tlap! Megan, instructional coach from IL. Joining in late. A1: I’m very happy that I completed my #365EDUcoaching goal from 2017. New goal: inspire more educators in my ISTE session to create their own 50, 100, or 365 day project. One word is below:
My #oneword2018 is YOGA. Yoga helps me with balance, stress, and everything else going in my professional and personal life. I should have practiced yoga more in 2017, but I didn't. It's time to improve on that! #educoach#adechat#AppleEDUchat
A2: It's almost expected to abandon resolutions, and goals tend to be relatively short-term. Bucket list items are life-long pursuits...things we make sacrifices for. I need a bucket list... #tlap
A2: I see a bucket list as something that you want to complete within your lifetime. A goal is some you want to accomplish within a set time period. #tlap
A2: To me a "bucketlist" are those once in a life time experiences. Like meeting Jason David Frank the original Green Ranger in person and talking. That is a moment than: "I paid my gas bill" #tlap
A2: A bucket list is more than just obtainable goals. A bucket list allows you to dream and keeps your spirit of adventure going, truly reflecting that of a lifelong learner. Something we as Ts want our own Ss to do. #tlap
a2. To me, a bucket list is a list of life enrichment experiences. Goals are systematic, planned and articulated. A bucket list is for seizing opportunities as they present themselves. #tlap
A2 #tlap
I feel like a bucket list is less demanding and more inspiring. I can’t articulate it just right but it feels like the constant carrot. My bucket list is being recreated this month. It’s been a rough 14 months and yea... bucket lists... I feel are more hopeful.
A2 Goals are often guided by messages from outside ourselves—things we think we should already be doing based on some external definition of success. Bucket lists are guided by our values: what we want to do to love be meaningful lives. #tlap

Q2: Goals and resolutions are great!! To us, a bucket list is something a little different. What is different...and maybe powerful...about creating a bucket list? #tlap
A2: A “Bucket List” is a long term dream or hope. For me, a goal is more immediate and has specific timelines. I set goals to get things done and move the needle. #tlap
A2:
Resolution-->I'm sucking at something and I need to be better
Bucket List -->an EXPERIENCE I want to be a part of usually driven by passion
#tlap#LeadLAP
A2: Bucket lists seem like something that can span your lifetime. No shame in not completing them within a shortened time frame. Extended goals give so much opportunity for self-reflection. #tlap
Q2: Goals and resolutions are great!! To us, a bucket list is something a little different. What is different...and maybe powerful...about creating a bucket list? #tlap
So true, Amy! I've spent all break prepping 6 conference presentations in the next 2 months across Texas! Living the seeds planted from 2017 😆 #tlap#onedayatatime
A2: Bucket List = bigger than a goal it is a goal infused or amplified with dreams, desires, wonder and passions -- something that is extraordinary. #tlap
A2: Bucket list items tend to be a longer list, and more of things I want to do/places I want to see. Goals and resolutions are what changes to habits we want to make. Example, a bucket list item of mine is to write a book, my Resolution is to write everyday. #tlap#TeachWrite
Q2: Goals and resolutions are great!! To us, a bucket list is something a little different. What is different...and maybe powerful...about creating a bucket list? #tlap
A2: Bucket list moments are those unforgettable moments & experiences. People have a lot of goals & a lot of resolutions; bucket list items are special & irreplaceable #tlap
A2: The cool thing about a bucket list is it doesn’t need a timeline. When it happens... it’s like being the 🤩 star at the party you’ve always been waiting for! #tlap
A2: Bucket lists are fun... they aren't the typical practical resolution type goals. They are the wild, crazy, fun, cool stuff you just want to do to live life to its fullest. #tlap
A1: I think about the previous year and how I can take what I learned and apply it to 2018. Writing down my resolutions this year and mapping out where I want to be schoolwise the rest of the year. Intrigued by #OneWord2018 too; haven't heard of it before! #tlap
A2) A bucket list item is a 'one-off' type of deal, a goal or resolution should be a lasting habit...but if said bucketlist item creates a lasting change, well then now we are talking! #TLAP
A2: For me, a bucket list includes joy, anticipation, exhilaration, jubilation... a resolution/goal is something to work towards and can share some attributes, but completing a bucket list item? Pure bliss! #tlap
Q2: Goals and resolutions are great!! To us, a bucket list is something a little different. What is different...and maybe powerful...about creating a bucket list? #tlap
#tlap A bucket list to me is created from optimistic ideas, accomplishments to conquer rather than changes that you want to make-a future endeavor not an immediate update
Q2: Goals and resolutions are great!! To us, a bucket list is something a little different. What is different...and maybe powerful...about creating a bucket list? #tlap
Hey #tlap & @burgessdave I am Marian Hough from NC. I teach 8th grade Social Studies. My bucket list item I crossed off was exploring Boston! A “must go” place for an American History teacher! #tlap#experientiallearning
A2: I ❤️ the Bucket List approach!! I believe you can establish multiple tasks that you want to complete or achieve! You find success when you can cross something off & gives you something else to work towards! #tlap
A2: My goals are usually things I set out to attain in a specific amount of time. My bucket list becomes my list of "somedays" and may become a goal at some point.
#tlaphttps://t.co/hGMIo56dCJ
Q2: Goals and resolutions are great!! To us, a bucket list is something a little different. What is different...and maybe powerful...about creating a bucket list? #tlap
A2: goals are reachable because of hard work and dedication; a bucket list is something you've always wanted to do and feel an amazing sense of fulfillment when you've done it. reaching goals are also great but a very different feeling from a bucket list item #tlap
A2 Bucket list item is a way for me to check something out. To see if I enjoy the activity or challenge. A goal or resolution is a way to hold myself accountable. #tlap
A2 Lists are just plain old fun to check off. You can do it all at once, skip around. I have mine hanging by my desk to constantly remind me there are so many fun things to try! #tlap
A2: Resolutions can often be just word or desires.My bucket list challenges me to live life to the fullest by reminding of all the things I want to achieve. #tlap
A2. Bucket lists are are more objective. There is usually an easy may to measure attainment. Resolutions tend to be a little more subjective and over a longer period of time. #tlap
Q2: Goals and resolutions are great!! To us, a bucket list is something a little different. What is different...and maybe powerful...about creating a bucket list? #tlap
A2: Bucket items are good to have. Their product goals. I think its better thought to have process goals. I want to write a book this year vs I want to write at least 1000 words in my blog a week. #tlap
A2 bucket lists not under a time frame specifically, I dream big on a bucket list, but goals are small steps, tangibles that hold me more accountable #tlap
A2: Goals and resolutions to me are things I try to accomplish because I'm unhappy with something, but bucket list items are things I would be excited to accomplish! I mean who doesn't like crossing things off of lists!? #tlap

Q2: Goals and resolutions are great!! To us, a bucket list is something a little different. What is different...and maybe powerful...about creating a bucket list? #tlap
A2 it is the power of "Choice". A bucket list is a to-do list. It is the optional journey we choose to go on and, how great is that feeling when you cross of that item to be done? Or that moment of FIERO when you conquer the most difficult task! #TLAP
A2: Bucket List is about the moment...got me thinking that if there is to be a goal list, it should look more like a Bucket List & less like a To Do List 🤔 #TLAP
A2: a bucket list represents lifetime goals. No timelines attached, but the list helps to make decisions that lead to those goals. Eyes on the prize #tlap
Yes!!!! #tlap@burgessdave
On my bucket list is to stand barefoot in Ireland again. To feel the sun on my face at the Cliffs and the grass between my toes. This will happen after I cross off the win lottery line on my bucket list. 😂
A1: No routine this year. Pushing myself way beyond my comfort zone by focusing more on transparent leadership through daily video reflection. #tlap#pln365
A2. For a bucket list, it has a longer period of time to accomplish some crazy things compared to a resolution which is a wanted change that we make in oneself. #tlap
Q2: Goals and resolutions are great!! To us, a bucket list is something a little different. What is different...and maybe powerful...about creating a bucket list? #tlap
A2 #tlap A bucket list is a list of things you'd like to do, places you'd like to see, etc. Life plans. Goals are more immediate. Ex: Bucket list-I'd like to have a horse again (Might not be attainable) Goal: 90% my PreK Ss will know the letter sounds by the end of the year.
A2: Reaching a goal is the result of a series of steps or actions taken to improve or reach over time, whereas a bucket list provides single experiences to bring awe and wonder to your life..both of which are important and meaningful #tlap
Bucket List items are those big things I'd like to do/achieve. Resolutions are the things I break by Jan. 5. I don't do resolutions, due to my experience with them. #tlap
Very interesting! I feel the opposite. I feel the pressure of a resolution more regularly because it is over longer period of time. I feel less "anxiety" over bucket list because they are usually planned and "checked off." #tlap
A2- events vs behaviors
Bucket list seems like an event- “one day I’d like to...”
Resolutions are behaviors for me.
Could a behavior lead to an event? Sure. #tlap
A2: hmmm...? I don’t have a bucket list but I set goals for myself on a regular basis but I’m thinking of creating a formal bucket list that would be more specific activities for fun versus professional goals #tlap
Q2: Goals and resolutions are great!! To us, a bucket list is something a little different. What is different...and maybe powerful...about creating a bucket list? #tlap
A2: Resolutions are often changes that you make within yourself. Bucket lists seem to be more experiences and activities that make a difference. One isn't necessarily better than the other, just different. #tlap
A2: Bucket lists are EPIC! They create the inner you and are foundational to your life story. Goals get you from point A to B on the road to your bucket list items/experiences. #tlap
A2 I see bucket lists as long term. A normal checklist/goal is daily or weekly (monthly). Bucket list is decades out. Smaller goals are made to reach those big ones. #tlap
Awesome Paul… I love adding video to your learning tools… I started a YouTube channel this year and it has been awesome for me personally. I love reflecting on what I did that week and sharing out the creative story of my classroom. #TLAP
A2: Bucket Lists are "lifetime" goals & they are often the rocks of the legacy you hope to leave, whereas resolutions are often smaller-in-scale-goals #tlap
A2 #tlap A bucket or pail to collect something, to carry it, a purposeful container. Within it ideas, hopes, dreams and a mosaic of who we are- our identity & personality to be utilized when needed
A life with purpose is healthier = New York Times article https://t.co/k30wQG48Ct: A bucket list is a life purpose.
Resolutions/goals are steps toward the bucket list! #tlap
@burgessdave and I have started a new Christmas tradition... we aren't giving each other gifts. Instead we are choosing bucket list items and making them happen! #tlap
A2a: Bucket list can be a one and done thing (went skydiving and now I'm done) Resolutions can be more of a process and may not be as exciting (eat healthier, exercise more, etc). #tlap
Q2: Goals and resolutions are great!! To us, a bucket list is something a little different. What is different...and maybe powerful...about creating a bucket list? #tlap
A3: I'd love to visit all the places my hubby visited while in the Navy. And get him on a cruise ship (he insists it will never happen). Challenge accepted! #tlap
A2: This sums up bucket list for me.... reach for the heavens!
"If you reach for the stars...all you get are the stars
but we've found a whole new spin.
If you reach for the heavens
You get the stars thrown in." #tlap

My uncle owns Chena Hot Springs outside of Fairbanks. You can see the lights, take a dip in the hot springs, visit his ice museum, and learn about the geothermal energy he uses to grow all the food for the resort. #tlap
A3: Be willing to trust the process, if that lead me to another country great. Go where I can do the most good. Would love to teach at a high school that didn't assign grades. #gradeless#DitchGrades#tlap
A2: Bucket lists include events and accomplishments you hope to achieve. Goals include short-term and long-term plans that we work towards achieving. #tlap
@burgessdave and I have started a new Christmas tradition... we aren't giving each other gifts. Instead we are choosing bucket list items and making them happen! #tlap
A2 Bucket List items are a life wish list! The sky is the limit and nothing seems unattainable. Dream BIG!
Resolutions seem to have more limitations in # and size due to natural barriers hindering the “dream big” effect.
#tlap
A3: I would give anything to go back to England and explore more of Europe! Next summer we are headed to Disneyland with with our two kids for 8 days, which will be amazing as wel! #tlap
A3 To be open-minded and say YES to the next adventure. One of the best compliments I received this year was from my friend (20 years younger than I am...former student) who said she loved doing "stuff" with me because I am "up for anything." Isn't that great? #tlap
A3: 3 that quickly come to mind... 1. stay in an over the water bungalow in Tahiti. 2. Stay at the ice hotel in the Swedish village of Jukkasjärvi 3. See the northern lights. #tlap
A3: My husband and I cannot wait to own our own RV and travel across the country. It's not necessarily a destination that is on my bucket list, but rather the journey. #TLAP
A1 In our family, we use 4 Gs to guide us-1. Glow: An accomplishment or something that makes us proud. 2. Grow: Something we are still working on in our life that we want to change or improve 3. Give: Something we have done for others 4: Grateful: Reflecting on gratitude. #tlap
A2: I always attributed bucket lists to death so I guess I shyed away from them for that reason...I must work on my living bucket list... love the idea of that #tlap
Hi Soleil Roper from Texas! A2 I think a bucket list has what you want to achieve as a long term while a goal is more immediate for specific purposes #tlap
A1: my own word is "growth" - growing in every aspect of my life - academic, professional, personal, and spiritual. More meditation, yoga, clean eating, and finish writing my book! #tlap

A3: #tlap I'd love to spend a week in Ireland!! On a smaller scale: go to the Grand Canyon (I was 3 y/o when we were there). Spend more time with our granddaughter.
A3- The list is endless! I wish I had the time and money to be able to just throw a dart on the map and travel wherever it lands. I LOVE to travel and I know there are still so many things out there I want to see and experience. #tlap
A3: in a few years: Disneyworld (my 4 yr old says she wants to go everyone she sees the opening credits)

Q2: Goals and resolutions are great!! To us, a bucket list is something a little different. What is different...and maybe powerful...about creating a bucket list? #tlap
A1 My #OneWord2018 is create! There’s so much to create. A better me personally, professionally, etc. it’s cliche but a new year is a refreshing new start. #tlap
A2: To me bucket lists are things that add to your overall life experience. Goals are systematic and are usually process orientated. You never know when you can accomplish your bucket list. It could be today...tomorrow.....right now! #tlap#startrightnow
A2 a bucket list item is something you are passionate about and want to accomplish, a resolution is something you think you should be doing. It is more powerful to determine what it is you believe in...sort of like finding your why.@simonsinek#tlap
A3 Going to Netherlands. My wife is 50% Dutch, her mom 1st gen US and my family is old, old Dutch (VanScoyoc). Scotland also looks amazing and I nearly did study abroad there so would like to visit :) #tlap
I think a bucket list can be powerful because you can include things like jumping out of an airplane ✈️ without the need to have logistics at the ready..... but if you keep noticing it on your list you are more likely to literally jump at the chance. #tlap
A3: Ireland and Germany are high on my list to explore my ancestory more. My husband, kids, and I frequently take road trips, even for a day; we just like exploring, so I still need to check off some of the states here, too. #tlap
I guess my “bucket list” is more of a travel list instead. I don’t really want to do things like sky diving or swim with sharks. There are some pretty awesome ice rinks I would like to skate on someday. #tlap

A2: A bucket lists includes things that we WISH to accomplish. It’s positive, even maybe bigger than us, and usually stems from intrinsic motivation. That’s how I see my yearly objectives: it is my yearly bucket list! #tlap
A3: I’ve always wanted to take a year to experience wonder...dream...play...learn...and truly live through the eyes of a child. Can you imagine a book about it? #tlap
A3: I want to take my husband @Dave_Mitchell to Europe. I was lucky enough to visit Germany & Austria as part of my Music Merchandising degree (life before ed) - a trip that will always be a part of my identity. I think about going back there so often. #wanderlust#tlap
A2: Bucket list items are easily defined and checked off where as goals sometimes seem lofty, ambitious and made without a plan for achieving them.#tlap
Q4: Dream big! What is an achievement or accomplishment that is sitting there unfulfilled on your bucket list? Or...what is one you want to add right NOW! #tlap
A2b...ok as i look back and have an ah-ha mome t all my bucket list events are also transformational but tend to be huge events that happen in a shorter time span...and truly add value, let me experience life and people of all walks and new adventures!! #tlap
A3: On a big scale: I'd love to go to Ireland and Bali. On a smaller scale, I'd like to go to a Duke Blue Devils basketball game at Cameron; go to Salem, Massachusetts; go to Harry Potter World; take my daughter to see her godmother in NC. #tlap
It's a constant struggle, never perfect, but I'm okay with just finding peace in the balance I can give to myself, my family, my colleagues, and my students. #tlap

A6: to work with Habitat for Humanity. Back in high school I assisted in demolishing a house with the youth group but I would love to help build one or more. #tlap

#tlap I would love to start a mindfulness campaign at my school and in my community-bringing together strategies for calm and positivity- spreading joy through building relationships and trust
Same here on the Google Cert. I paid for and passed all the Google apps tests years ago and now they don’t really mean much. I’m hesitant to do the work again if the program or requirements change again. #tlap
've seen several people mention #sketchnotes and now I'm intrigued! I do a form of this, but curious if there is an app that people do this on? What's the scoop? SO up my alley! #tlap
A6: I would love to establish some kind of system that bring free little libraries all over the world or if one of those exists already to help them haha #tlap
Working with some schools to setup a game club in there schools to get kids thinking and off the streets… Working with a student to put this into action. So far so good! #TLAP
A6: I really want to start with building the capacity for kindness and service within my school and who knows the impact that may have on our community!

A6 After Harvey- to continued collect and provide books and school supplies to schools and students most impacted from the hurricane. Rebuilding is a slow process #tlap
I’d also like to help create a middle school social justice curriculum — there are great resources out there but not enough age-appropriate, coordinated units culminating in meaningful projects. #tlap
A6: these items should also be seamlessly integrated into teaching everyday through curriculum - make our students social change agents. #tlap#socialjustice#equity.
Thanks much for subscribing… I can’t wait to continue to put out more EDU content and #Gamification ideas as well. Thanks so much for joining that #PLN#TLAP
Tamara! I thought you were already doing this! Your heart is so visible! You just need to get it on "paper"! :) Big hugs- your accountability partner! (one of them) #tlap

I want to help our students mentor in our elementary feeder schools to begin building relationships early. Leading our theatre program gives me an easy “in.” #tlap
A6 I provide IT support for @NJ211 but would love to do more work w/ 211's nationwide and @UnitedWay to help those in need connect w/ the resources available to them! #tlap
I'm taking classes, hoping to become more proficient in Spanish. 25% of our students/families speak Spanish, & sometimes we have students who come to us who don't know English "yet." It makes a difference being able to communicate, even if you're not the most fluent "yet". #tlap
#tlap A6 After Harvey- to continue to collect and provide books and school supplies to schools and students most impacted from the hurricane. Rebuilding is a slow process #tlap

A6: I want student to shine with Kindbess Passion Projects! I want the world to see that small acts of kindness matter! I want to be the change so others can see that kindness really does have transformational power! #tlap
A6: My focus this year is to do RAK & uplift others!! Working on a few secret projects for some people who have inspired me!! Will also involve my Ss in spreading kindness!! #tlap
A6: Even though I did this with a few classes last year, I would love to write more @carwindowpoetry with students this year. I’m repeating this activity because the students loved it. #tlap
A6: I spent the entire first semester helping my students #ChooseKind while reading @WonderTheMovie. I then organized a private movie showing & about 250 students and family members showed up. My 💙 grew ten sizes that day. ➡️Continue school:family connections. #tlap
Serve in an orphanage overseas--as a teacher, comforter, hugger, motivator (Maybe China?)
I'd love to write & publish a children's picture book (about overcoming) & give them all one before I left, too.
#tlap
A6 I want to be an ambassador for arts education and help bring quality, meaningful, relevant arts education to every student (and teacher)that I can. The arts are about joy and connections. I want to spread the joy and make connections. #tlap#artsed#k12artchat#artofcomp#4ocf
A6: I have been inspired by @NowakRo, @nankr1120, and @lauriesmcintosh who are the kindest individuals I have met. They inspire me to be the change I want to see in the world. I plan on helping create a multicultural library at my school. #tlap
I will be helping a youth group of teens this year and reading to kids in the schools i work at to promote kindness & friendship inclusion we have buddy benches I will help kids enjoy #tlap#LeadLAP
A6: I want to begin a family tradition to volunteer more, especially during the holiday seasons. Hopefully we make it happen this year so we can give back & do what we are called to do; serve others daily! #tlap
A6: I want to create community service experiences for my students every year as one of our tradtitions, cleaning up state parks in the fall, Toys 4 Tots in the winter, camping site clearing in the spring to get ready for summer camping etc
#tlap
A6: Mine is to be more giving, and not so reluctant when sharing ideas (even if it did take hours to plan and create.) It's not about me - it's about how many kids I can reach in the classroom, school, and globally. The reward will be exponential. #TLAP
A6. Having Ss do a kindness project where they can reach out to a select group of people either children in hospital, or adults in a nursing home. #tlap
A6: I don't know exactly how to go about this, but my heart is saddened by all of the suicides that result from bullying (especially cyberbullying). I want to educate people about appreciating differences! #tlap
A6: I want students to shine with Kindness Passion Projects! I want the world to see that small acts of kindness matter! I want to be the change so others can see that kindness really does have transformational power! #tlap
A5 Would love to write high interest books for struggling readers. Action filled books with great illustrations over preschool books with cartoony covers. #tlap Military, sports, great characters with accessible but descriptive language.
A6: we have been chatting about this over the last few weeks at our home... thinking about the elderly and those suffering from dementia...lost our mom 4 years ago to Alzheimer’s #tlap
A6 I've started a monthly lunch w/students by providing free lunch for all staff&students to create that TOGETHERness needed at my school. I want it to grow bc Ss need connection & w/connection, attendance grows, academics get better & we are all JUNTOS-it's a domino effect #tlap
A6: Set up Free Little Libraries throughout our school zone. A large number of our families suffer from generational poverty. Books in the home are a luxury and this would provide a much need resource. #tlap
A7: The dissertation and Premiere Software, but financial balance I've been working on for 10 years. I think writing an education book is more likely. #tlap
A6: Immediately, my goal is to provide a sanctuary or safe place (my classroom) for the outcast, shy, and bullied students.Step two is to change the culture so that my room isn't needed for that anymore. #tlap
A6 we usually focus in school on helping in Africa - be it surguries, school supplies, water or clothing ... my personal charity of choice is THE FISHER HOUSE - globally #tlap
To provide hope to all those in our schools that struggle with mental illness. To ensure that education is about the heart just as much as it is about the mind. #tlap
A6: When my kids get bigger I want to do work with Habitat and Church World Service (Refugee Settlement Organization) with them. #BeAWorldChanger#RaiseWorldChangers#tlap
A6: On the same note, we are having residents from the nursing home come to our classroom this Fri. We are going to interview them for our biography papers! My Ss are super excited! #tlap
A6: We have dedicated service to our school culture. Hurricane relief, Special Olympics, Toys For Tots, Red Cross. Each student has a community service partner as well. #leadlap#tlap
A6: #tlap An organization that I belong to has adopted the high school community closet and an elem. school. I am the chair of that committee. We alternate our giving between the two buildings. A "need list" was published with our yearbook so members know what to bring each time
#tlap To network. To collaborate on Twitter and Voxer, at Edcamps and PD to keep meeting new people and learning new things. Keep writing and meditating every day- no exceptions
A6: I want to volunteer at the Humane Society this year. I miss my doggies! A couple of my students recently volunteered there for a class project, and they had a great time! It'll happen! #TLAP
A6 I would really like to set up a grant program for teachers who are willing to push boundaries for kids but lack funds. Sometimes teachers have heart but just lack funds to make changes. #someday#tlap
A6: I've always been involved with MDA bc of 5 uncles having muscular dystrophy, and I've fundraised and participated in the St. Jude satellite runs for 5 years now. Would like to help Ss identify populations that need help and how can be helped. #tlap
A7: This is so hard. If there is something I want to do, I find a way to do it. I need to expand my horizons so I want to do more. I've jumped out of planes, I've dove off cliffs, I've parasailed, I guess just keep getting better is a good bucket list item #tlap
Let's challenge each other? We can get a PLN Flipgrid guitar accountability link going. :) #tlap (Only after I turn in my book! That's first. A few more days...that's it.)
A6: We do an end-of-year countdown in Kindergarten with a different letter activity each day, but I'd love to change it this year to tie into our "growing kindness" school initiative and have a different daily act of kindness for my kinders to do! #tlap
Spreading the #kindness180 message. There are so many aspects to the Kindness180. So much I want to share but I don't have enough characters on a twitter post. haha! Everyone can use more kindness #tlap
The only obstacle in my way is getting everything prioritized and finished. Graduate, and then I can continue learning and get back to bucket list #tlap
A7 Finding #LeadLAP on my bookshelf, starting it at 8:30pm tonight and therefore falling into this twitter chat helps cement one goal I have of more reading and connecting with what appears to be many people in my same frame of mind (which I'm still figuring out). #tlap
A4: Getting involved in a PLN and reading more educational books!! Halfway through #tlap now and already thinking of ways to change my classroom. Utilizing twitter to help me improve my teaching craft as well #tlap
Q7: I'm simplifying and decluttering...so many things I don't need that get in my way...gonna keep the main thing the main thing #intentional with time, choices, balance!!! #tlap
A6: have been really promoting kindness and positive praise throughout our school with teachers and students @Willway_SD62 so powerful to see it come to fruition #TLAP
Q7) I'm feeling refreshed and ready to build relationships with my PLN, grow as a blogger and hopefully start making steps towards becoming an author. #tlap
A7: Be fearless. I need to believe that I can tackle things that may seem so out of reach. I've been challenged to create a 5 year plan. Maybe the time is now? #tlap
A7: I am not kidding this book is getting written and checked off. Now becoming more than a book on my computer...I have no idea but that is a whole different deal. #tlap
A7: With #geniushour with guidance from @mcnairan3 I hope to facilitate passion projects in which my students make a difference in our community and even the world! I don't know where we are going but I can't wait to see where we go! #tlap
You’ll get there through the work. Quantity leads to quality. Be patient and kind to yourself. It will come. Don’t worry about doing it correctly. Explore, try new things-this will lead to more meaningful work because it will be your system/approach that works for you. #tlap
A7 I am in the process of starting a @TED_ED club at my school to help students develop their own talks. I am pretty excited about it, but there area lot of logistics to get through first! #tlap
A1 (I'm late!): Fifth grade teacher in Los Angeles area. Bucket list items crossed off: 1) sky diving (personal); 2) starting Google Classroom this year (teaching). #tlap
A7: My daughter was recently diagnosed with ADHD... Would love to help her write her own manifesto to showcase her strengths and abilities despite her challenges #tlap#leadlap
A7: Revolutionizing the PD for my district. My principal, @JustinCopley2 , my building leadership team, and I have begun the journey. I'm going ROGUE with #4OCF and will take them with me. #tlap
A4: #tlap I would like to begin speaking to groups about the trauma-informed schools movement. It's a passion of mine. Just finished reading "Trauma Informed Schools" by @SporLin On to "Help for Billy" by @HeatherTForbes !!
In reply to
@burgessdave, @SporLin, @HeatherTForbes
A6 My fiancé and recently started serving as our church’s youth group leaders. I’m excited to have this opportunity to connect with these kids in a different, but equally meaningful way. #tlap
After this chat I need to rework my goals and bucket list. Inspiring good stuff. Most long term plans for me involve retirement. Not good enough. #tlap
I’m not at liberty to disclose right now. But I recently achieved one of my dream goals. So I’m crafting a new goal connected to this new accomplishment #ClearAsMud#tlap
Q4: Dream big! What is an achievement or accomplishment that is sitting there unfulfilled on your bucket list? Or...what is one you want to add right NOW! #tlap
A7: I honestly don't have a list. But have been "crossing things off" that I never thought of or knew I was capable of. The hope is 2018 will be the same. #possibility#tlap
Get Kindness librarys hopefully in both our elementary schools K through 5th ,in our middle school our middle school needs a buddy bench next. Our schools will be filled with inclusion acceptance Friendship #tlap#LeadLAP
A6: My sister and I are planning a trip to Calais, France in June to help out at the refugee camp there. I really want to help people who have lost their sense of home, safety, and peace. #tlap
A7: sounds simple, but take my two Gremlins to the beach. After years of trying to wrangle a big family trip, focus shifting to something simple #makememories#tlap
A7: I have always wanted to become a teacher and graduate with a Bachelors due to being the first in my family to do so. I am excited to hopefully accomplish both of those this May! #tlap
No you don't. You can present from your perspective now. Find your voice, identify your topic, and write proposals. Start local but also regional/nat. #tlap
4) every time I cross an item off my list I get inspired by others to raise the bar and do so much more. Like, c’mon, did you see @awelcome today? Beast!!!! #tlap
Q4: Dream big! What is an achievement or accomplishment that is sitting there unfulfilled on your bucket list? Or...what is one you want to add right NOW! #tlap
A7: My plan of action is to write each day and grow my PLN while sharing the joys of kindness with others. 2018 is going to be an AMAZING year - I can't wait to see just how many lives will be lifted up in the process! #tlap#passionforkindness#BeTheGood
Right now I'm living paycheck to paycheck :) I figure- I'M one of those teachers, there's got to be more! Want to help next generation of teachers! #tlap
A7 I just remind myself of my goals, but always move forward. They might change or be added to, but you have to take baby steps (or leaps of faith) and surround yourself with people who support you. #tlap
A7: I want to be genuinely happy and find time to go places I've never gone before. Instead of waiting for people to help me get there, I'm going to make the jump on my own #tlap
A7 -Obstacles - to stay inspired, work through challenges as they come up, and break through others' old perceptions of me as I transition to be the teacher I want to be. #tlap
A7: Sewing. Obstacle: I don't have a sewing machine....yet. I might just start with a small stitch item or learn different simple stitch options. #tlap
A6: Well this might be a little self motivated, but my wife is starting a farm so our community has fresh produce. Her goal is to have students work it to teach them the value of taking care of our Earth. I just want to be able to support her mission. #tlap
A7: I want to start my vlogging channel this year on YouTube. In order to do this I need to save money to purchase a camera as well as prioritize my responsibilities and time management better. #TLAP#Sony#SendMeACameraPlease
A6: I just want to educate parents of SpEd S's how to use technology and other strategies to help them access information for jobs, learning and connections. #tlap
#tlap A7 -Jim, MS counselor from Texas, joining late. I’m hoping for more clarity in 2018. I want to finish my education career reaching for the finishing line instead of crossing it. Eliminate doubt.
A5: Learning how to create a blog! I follow ones that are inspiring and helpful and I would love to chart my years through teaching that way as well #tlap
A7: Goal is too eventually write a book, but before you can do write something worth reading you have to do something worth writing about. Working on my sports-based gamified class to be taught this upcoming semester (fingers crossed) #tlap
A7 - I get in my own way but I can't cross myself off my obstacle list...I can only find inspiration to get moving and going which is why I showed up tonight for this chat (baby steps) #tlap
A7:
In order to cross anythingoff that may be on my hypothetical bucket list, I’m going to need to work on balance. I truly do not have it in my life, but I’m working on it already! #tlap
A7- I think I literally just jumped over an obstacle. Like 2 minutes ago.hahaha! I sometimes hold back at the risk of looking like a crazy person. Well I am a crazy person and might as well just own it instead of denying it. Crazy can be good though. Don't be scared #tlap
A1: My beginning of the year routine is to relax and take some time for self care—it’s a thing I tend to forget throughout the year, so I want to be purposeful about it! #TLAP
A8 - Pause talking about students at our upcoming midyear grade level data meetings and ask each team - what's on your bucket list. #tlap@burgessdave@burgess_shelley Can't thank you all enough for this well timed chat this evening!
A7: My focus this year is to DARE to take risks, DARE to stand out, & DARE to push myself to new limits!! This focus will help me accomplish new things & grow this year! #tlap
One school 5th grade SS is in process of putting buddy bench together. My admins will work with me to present it soon to my 3rd-5th grade school! It will be a nice school yr! Its awesome im filling my kindness bucket one school at a time one student at a time #tlap#leadlap
I don’t. But this is the advice I give to anyone who is thinking about doing ANYTHING that is creative. The way great/beautiful things get done is by doing lots of work. Quantity and brave exploration is how you discover your voice. #tlap
Yes! And for me, it has just been about being open & saying yes to opportunities - even if I don't think I'm prepared - bc I know I will get to be. #tlap
Q8: I want to encourage more personalized PD and help Ts find ways to meet their individual needs and grow interests. Loving #culturize and want our building to be a place Ts and Ss want to come to each day. #tlaphttps://t.co/15ULSrAuMw
#tlap A7 - Our entire school qualified for free breakfast and lunch this year. Such a game changer. Hunger is an obstacle that needs to be removed from a kid’s school day.
A6: Well this might be a little self motivated, but my wife is starting a farm so our community has fresh produce. Her goal is to have students work it to teach them the value of taking care of our Earth. I just want to be able to support her mission. #tlap
7) the reason we often stagnate w/ bucket list goals is they are often big. I take every bucket list goal, break them into yearly check marks,& monthly objectives. They are all written on my bulletin board in the garage. When I make them more manageable I see more success. #tlap
Crazy travel nightmare day to start 2018. Finally will arrive for tomorrow’s #tlap program about 10 hrs late and multiple cancellations and delays. But...this chat...this crew. #DayMaker for a pirate. Thank you!
Was blown away by listening to @DonWettrick and his student Luke at #DitchSummit . They are not wasting any time getting started with the bucket list and building a school. #tlap
A7: I want to create opportunities for my fellow Ts to move forward and create #LCL Life Changing Lessons! I want to TEAMteach to open doors to learning! Go Team 👊💥 #tlap#BetterTogether#Nan3EDU
@burgess_shelley@burgessdave it was fun participating but will have to get up early tomorrow to great my high schools in the new year. Thank you everyone. I had fun!#tlap
Q7) I'm feeling refreshed and ready to build relationships with my PLN, grow as a writer and hopefully collaborate with an educational author. #babysteps#tlap
A7: I have always wanted to become a teacher and graduate with a Bachelors due to being the first in my family to do so. I am excited to hopefully accomplish both of those this May! #tlap
You have found your tribe, Dan! #LeadLAP is SO inspiring! They have a fantastic Twitter chat on Saturday mornings at 10:30 EST (7:30 PST) and it's filled with lots of like-minded educators who inspire one another! Looking forward to seeing you there! #tlap
A8 be there for all the little things. Be present and be invested in the things they are interested. The sky is the limit once the relationship is built! #tlap
I'm planning to cross off my writing goals/bucket list items. I feel like I can find inspiration while at home with a baby. I can write and rock at the same time. #tlap
A8: I will let my students know it's okay to step out of their comfort zones to take risks and to learn from any mistakes that are made along the way #tlap
A8: Let's all make @Buncee bucket lists to share and teach others. Everyone has to have a dream, and every dream has to be written/recorded tangibly and etched in the ❤️ heart! #tlap
This PIRATE crew totally rocks. Thank you all for getting me fired up for 2018. I hope you will share your progress with us as you work to check some of these bucket list items off your list. #tlap
A8: I want to encourage more personalized PD and help Ts find ways to meet their individual needs and grow interests. Loving #culturize and want our building to be a place Ts and Ss want to come to each day. #tlaphttps://t.co/15ULSrAuMw
A8: There's not a lot of opportunity in our county; I want to show students there's a whole other world out there and they're capable of succeeding in it. #growthmindset#InnovatorsMindset#tlap
A6 I would really like to set up a grant program for teachers who are willing to push boundaries for kids but lack funds. Sometimes teachers have heart but just lack funds to make changes. #someday#tlap
A8: Continue to be an encourager because the world has enough critics already. Encourage other teachers to take a risk and join Twitter. It has made an immense difference in my life. @megan_hacholski and @_on11 can attest to that. #tlap
A8: I’m going to be a more active listener. Im going to be a positive friend and encourage others to reach for their dreams. Im going to eliminate my tendency to be the devil’s advocate. #tlap
