Peter “B-DAWG” Boland... secondary ELA Teacher in Woonsocket, RI... not a fairy table or fable but I have always loved Frederick, the children’s book about the field mouse... #tlap
#tlap Jerry Toups aka #JediOfBelieve HS Math Tr from the Houston area. Been using #AlwaysBelieve in yourself as my 1st rule since 1990. #ItWorks My favorite fairy tale is Beauty and the Beast. See the beauty in everybody!
Hi All, Dorothy from Michigan:) I love all fairy tales! My son is in the MS musical of the Little Mermaid this weekend, so I'll give a shout out to the MS kids working so hard! #tlap
Q1: The princes' father, the king, was disappointed in their laziness. Tell us about a time you disappointed someone and what you decided to do about it.
#TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip
A1: Definitely disappointed my parents a time or two when growing up. Now the person I disappoint the most is ME. When my emotions get the best of me, the needs of others take backseat & that interferes with my mission in life to serve others selflessly. #TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip
A1.
A1. I forgot to do a very important task. I let my others down. I sulked in my own misery and rethought that day 1000 times. Reflected. Apologized. Worked harder for my kids and school. Everyone makes mistakes. We can’t beat ourselves up too much. #tlap#PrincesOfSerendip
A1: Oh my, I’m sure I disappointed my mom & dad a time or two 😂 In all serious though, disappointments lead to realizations & reflections... own up to your mistakes and be open with your communication. Apologize sincerely when needed! #tlap@AllysonApsey#PrincesOfSerendip
A1 being married for 10 years, I have definitely disappointed my lovely wife a time or two. I have learned to quickly own it, apologize and do what I needed to do to make it right. A wise person once taught me it's not about who's right, it's about what's right. #tlap

#TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip
A1: This is a regular occurrence for us humans. Best thing I've learned to do is own it, apologize, then fix it is that's possible. Never easy, but always the best way to handle it. #tlap
A1: When I was struggling in math, I felt like I was disappointing my college professor who stayed after school to work with me one on one. She reassured me that she would never give up on me, and that made a world of difference. Now, I worry about letting myself down. #tlap
A1: I know that I disappointed my parents a few times in high school even though I was generally a great kid. Now, I do disappoint myself the most. #tlap
A1-Going light on my answer tonight...told my 2 year old it was too cold to go out and play in the snow....5 minutes later we were outside having a snowball fight! #tlap
A1- I’m the mom of a teenager- I’m always disappointing https://t.co/15nAQKO6a8 matter who it is though, I try to be realistic and either make the decision that it’s ok, or figure something I can learn from the situation. #TLAP
A1: Interestingly enough, I think I often am disappointed in myself. What didn't I do to connect with this family, this teacher or this kid. How could I have been better #tlap
A1: Disappointed my Son last night when dinner was not what he hoped/asked for! Had to pick a battle with a sic year old, slight tweak was made, everyone happy - YAY! #tlap
A1: I disappointed myself last year when my emotions took over as I was dealing with a challenging situation. I took out my frustration on a colleague that was just trying to help. Once the situation defused I whole heartedly apologized for acting in the heat of the moment. #TLAP
A1: Definitely disappointed my parents a time or two back in my teenage years. But I usually owned up to my mistakes, took responsibility and restored their faith in me. I definitely learn from the disappointing mistakes. #tlap
Now that I think about it...he kinda is. But, I still like that fairytale for some reason. ;) I think it's the whole idea of dreaming big and letting nothing get in your way. hehe... #tlap
A1: I felt like I dissapointed myself and Ss with my teaching a few years ago. I decided to read and revamp my classroom and created a new history experience for all! #TLAP
A1 In leadership positions like we are all in we are going to let peopme down. I try my best to learn from the moment, apologize for it, and do my best to not let it happen again. Biggest thing is to own it! #tlap
A1: In my personal life, going through a divorce I know that I disappointed at least one person. I had to stay positive about my why and what was going to be best for me and my future. #tlap
A1 The worst person to disappoint is myself. I have to take time to self reflect and forgive myself. I have to learn and then move on #tlap#PrincesOfSerendip
A1: disappointed my parents although they are more merciful& kinder than I deserve. I strive everyday to live a life that embodies the highest potential of humanness. A work in progress but they see me working towards it #tlap
A1: I have disappointed members of my family many times. The guilt eats at me and I work hard to make it up to them and restore their faith in me. #tlap
A1: I’ve disappointed my daughter by not attending a play she was in. I decided from that point out for us to have regular & clear communication & expectations of each other. I’ve attended a play & multiple other events since then. I love her & im proud of her #TLAP
A1: As a mom, teacher, M. Ed student, I often disappoint myself! I remember to have grace on myself and keep doing the best I can with what I know. #tlap#PrincesOfSerendip
A1: I have disappointed my daughter and son by working so hard at work I miss out at home. 😔 How did I fix this? I work hard each day to #BalanceLAP and give my family my full attention at home. #tlap
A2: I dreamed of becoming social worker when I was younger. After the powerful help of a hospital social worker when my mom was sick, I liked the idea of helping families navigate both emotional toll of a loved one's illness & complicated medical system. #TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip
Q2: The princes set off in different directions to live as common villagers.
If you were not an educator, what profession would you explore?
#TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip
A1 I’ve disappointed many, many people, but I’ve probably disappointed myself most often. High expectations, striving for perfection, and too many excuses. This year, I am focusing on attainable goals! I wrote about it here https://t.co/vttUsBmUYX#tlap
I hear you Jay!! You are amazing but have very high expectations for yourself...which is one of the reasons you are so amazing! #TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip
A1: I believe strongly in the mantra that actions reflect leadership. My team didn't do as well as I would have liked at our competition and a lot of that falls on me. I was disappointed in myself, but we already have a plan to regroup for next year. They're awesome kids. #tlap
Hey #tlap friends! It's Nathan Perry joining in late (had to change a pair of diapers haha). I teach 8th grade US history just outside of Kansas City, MO! My favorite fairy tale is The Beauty and the Beast.
A2: I enjoy education so much, the students, teachers, staff, admin, and parents..it's hard to even consider another profession. #tlap Too old to be a rock star now! ;)
Rock on, man! Such an awesome experience! Been bringing the heat to @Simmonsknights1 every day. Got a special event full of hooks planned for Thursday afternoon in your honor. :) #tlap
In reply to
@burgessdave, @SmartLab_tweets, @Simmonsknights1
A2: 🌎 International Business! I love to travel ✈️ and I can honestly talk to anyone! I’ve always been interested in marketing and promotions, and I love connecting with colleagues! Presenting is one of my favorite things to do! #TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip@AllysonApsey

#TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip
A1- I think that when I disappoint people/myself the best practice is to be honest and up front. It just makes things worse to deny or make excuses. Be real and learn from the mistake has been my best lesson learned #TLAP
#tlap A1 Everyday you should be aware that you fall short of perfection. Have a gracious heart full of empathy. Stive to be the best you can for your Ss. THEY NEED YOU! #AlwaysBelieve
A2: I’ve always wanted to be a flight attendant so I could explore the cities I landed in during my down time. A librairian was a close third. You can learn so much from books and travel! #tlap#PrincesOfSerendip
Q2: The princes set off in different directions to live as common villagers.

#TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip
A2: If I wasn't an educator... and when I retire... I want to come back as the janitor at a school. You can have such an impact and all you have to do is be nice, work hard, and do you job #tlap
a1. #tlap My first few years were full of things I wish i had not done. Complacency was to blame I guess. But I forced myself to critically assess my work, seek help from mentors and strive to be a better professional.
A2: I would love to be a professional scrapbooker. Preserving memories is so important to me. We all have a story to tell and the photos we take keep our stories alive for generations. I would love helping others record their memories. #TLAP

#TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip
A2: today, I can’t imagine working in a field other than education, but 25 years ago, I did think of medicine. For me, it was finding ways to serve people& improve the world in some way. #TLAP
A1: Let me thnk of something recent. I don`t remember disappointing anyone except myself. It usually involves feeling like I should have done more to help a student. Wait...I thought of someone I disappoint. My personal trainer because I still haven't lost weight. #tlap
A1 - Once a S had asked me to stay after to watch their game at school. I told them I would, but something urget had come up and I had to leave before the game started. I knew the S was upset. I apologied and then made up by staying for the next two games. #tlap
WU: I'm changing my answer. My secret favorite fairy tale is Mulan. I love the idea of a tough girl showing up a bunch of tough military guys. As a dad of a daughter I like it even more. #tlap
a2. #tlap My all school role in tech has allowed me to work with a wide range of interests. If not an educator would most likely be working in a similar capacity. Perhaps designing full time software for schools. :)
A2 when I was younger, I contemplated many different avenues... hair dresser, lawyer, social worker, but I KNOW I made the right choice. Being a teacher is definitely my calling ❤️ #tlap
A2: This is a hard one because I have always wanted to teach. I would have to say a college advisor because I would love to be able to support first generation college students. I was a 1st gen college student, and my professors and advisors truly helped me out a lot. #tlap
My late uncle was a military historian for the federal government. Worked at the pentagon. Has written and published books on the revolutionary war to Vietnam #tlap
A2 I always wanted to be a neuroscientist—still love studying the brain! It facilitates me tremendously. Luckily, many of my findings help me become a more informed EDU.
WIN WIN! ☺️
#tlap
A2: I would return to my previous profession of thirteen years, a flight attendant. I love to travel and would enjoy it more now that my children are grown. #tlap
A1: What have I decided to do about disappointing my personal trainer? Hmm...Nothing really, and that is the problem. I really need to adjust my eating habits and avoid the sweets. #tlap
A2: I want to travel SO badly... whatever allows me to travel and explore the world! I always say when I retire from teaching I will become a flight attendant. #tlap
Q3: The first prince went to work on a farm and discovered the feeling of pride in hard work. Describe an accomplishment you are proud of. #TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip
A2: if I couldn’t be a teacher, I would go back to my first choice and become a nun or maybe a priest. Or a musician. Or an author. Or a really confused person 🤪
#tlap
A2: I would explore the medical field. A medical doctor, physician asst, RN, physical therapist! I enjoy helping others & the challenges of different help being needed; analysis, diagnosis, solving problems & educating #tlap
A3: Of course I am so proud of my two books, but I am even more proud of the staff of Quincy Elementary. They are so passionate, skilled, and work so hard. I am beyond honored to be their leader. #TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip
A3: Being better than my IEP back from grade school and high school, pushing myself through all levels of college, and earning my Doctorate in a couple weeks. #tlap
A2 - My father was a fireman and eventual fire chief. I have admired his dedication to selflessness and community service. If I were not a Teacher I would have become a firefighter. Also, I've always wanted to start my own small café and bakery. #tlap
A2: One of my passions is audio/video editing. If I could do this all over again, I wish I would have hung out with the @HFHS59 broadcasting department instead of playing football. That group has made a significant impact on the Chicago media landscape. #tlap

I really need to get back in the edchat game. Any advice from those with small kids under 18 months? My education soul is in need of the conversation & connections. #edchat#BoldSchool#tlap#sblchat
You and my vice principal @HarryWHBell would get along instantly! But with you, who wouldn’t with your warm smile! He constantly gives us brain facts-I love learning how we learn! #tlap#PrincesOfSerendip
A1: I’ve disappointed my wonderful wife more than I can count, but I apologize, reflect, listen, learn and change my behavior. Similar process I follow when I disappoint a student, staff member, or parent. #tlap
I have a 14 month old and I feel your pain. I went from 7-9 chats a week to 0 for a while. I am in 2 regularly with sporadic ones here and there. #tlap
A2: I've known since I was in 3rd grade I wanted to teach. I taught the neighborhood kids to tie their shoes and ride a bike. 52 years later I'm still learning and sharing what I know. #tlap
A2: I started out wanting to plant churches, actually, but got called to a different mission field. Now, I get to show love, grace, and peace to over 100 staff and over 800 students daily. #tlap
Love that, Nycol. I need to meet him, for sure. We could nerd-out together. Brain facts are my fave! I used to teach them to my 3rd graders all of the time. hehe... never too young to learn about that amazing organ! #tlap
#tlap A2 I have been labelled as the #JediOfBelieve | In the Pocono Mts @campcayuga for 19 summers I was TEX the camp photogrpher. The key is to make your life about kids. THIS PRODUCES JOY!
A3 Receiving this from a parent, staying in contact with the majority of my Ss over the last 24 years, and earning the #HeartofEducation award last year are my biggest accomplishments. #TLAP
A2. If not in education, something where I would live on the islands and my work would revolve around the ocean. Tropical islands..... just to clarify! 🏝 Maybe in another life. #TLAP
A2: I would own a book store in a beach town where kids and adults could come and read and hang out and just be. We would bring carts of books to the beach for people to read while they relaxed. Money doesn't matter for my other job right? #tlap

#TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip
Q3 Im proud of my profession and obtaining my Doctorate. This is not the path as a youth I imagined, I didn’t imagine my life this good! Great career, wonderful wife, and two amazing daughters. #tlap
Q3: I am so proud that I was an educator, admin, author, college prof, business owner, leadership coach, speaker, and a "Dr.". I worked hard (my parents instilled this in us). It's hard to say all this, feels like we should be modest. #tlap
A3: I have dedicated my career to learning how to teach elementary students to read and to read well. Twenty years of reading, studying, watching, trying, fine-tuning, sweating, believing, holding my breath, and watching Ss learn to read well and most grow to love reading. #tlap
A3: PERSONAL - My healthy & beautiful son & daughter who make me feel so loved & challenged all at once. PROFESSIONAL - Still loving my job after 16 years in education...feel like I am at my best right now in this field! #tlap
A1: There is not a day that goes by where I do not make mistakes. I mean well, but I am late, I forget, I lose my patience, I am human. In these situations the best practice is to own the failure, work to make it right the next time around and continue listening to others. #tlap
Q1: The princes' father, the king, was disappointed in their laziness. Tell us about a time you disappointed someone and what you decided to do about it.
#TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip
Thanks! It's pushed me to contemplate writing a book about the journey to show Ss that they CAN do it regardless of what their IEP says about them. Working title- From IEP to EdD #tlap
A3: Pretty proud of my most recent #tlap Lord of The Flies Island Crash learning experience. Lots of critical thinking, collaboration, and some struggle! Oh, and FUN!
Aggie...I'm dying over here! That is AWESOME! Want to be our DJ at the DBC conference? ...assuming we ever have one and assuming we have a dance or party one night! ;) #tlap It's ON!
@burgessdave
Hi friends! Tamara, tech integrator from VA, just got home and excited to jump into #tlap with the amazing @AllysonApsey hosting! (Better late than never!) #Path2Serendipity
Ever show 1/2 a photo ask them to describe what the picture is about or what is in the rest of the picture? Or zoom in and ask them to guess them pull back until eventually seeing full pic that connects to that days lesson. #tlap#sstlap
A3- My children are my greatest accomplishment, but professionally, there is no greater feeling of pride than seeing the pride on the faces of my students when they reach their goals. #TLAP
A3: I am proud to be teacher (14) and principal (11) in the same district for 25 years. @WWCSD The Walker staff amazes me every single day. Our students thrive because of them. #tlap
A3: I tell my daughters all the time that life is difficult & the most successful people r the ones who have learned self awareness& have the best coping mechanisms& surround themselves with ppl who help w/ this process. I think I am Proud of practicing what I’m preaching #tlap

A4: Our Ss leadership team at Quincy Elementary decided to collect art supplies for a local children's hospital through Ben's Big Art Box https://t.co/BBIi1aiuO2#TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip
When I first took my principal job (just earned my doctorate) and my supt said...don't use the title, we don't do that here. I wasn't planning on it, but it made me almost want to hide "Dr." forever. Just fyi -she was a great supt, I liked her a lot. #tlap
A4: I can't think of just one. They all involve helping Ss-keeping Ss from dropping, helping Ss deal with all sorts of trauma, etc. Oh, I just of thought of an accomplishment. I taught myself how to speak Portuguese (boy was that hard). #tlap
A3: I’m proud of taking the leap into blogging. It took a lot of courage for me to begin sharing my stories. Now it is something I look forward too and ideas pop into my head at random times during the school day. https://t.co/uHAd8hHyXu#TLAP
A3: funny this relates to a1 in an odd way. I am proud of my determination & journey towards my doctorate. But disappointed that I let so many people mock me about it that I took down my goal chart above my desk & swore to never talk about it again. #TLAP
A3-I’m proud the relationshipsthat I have created w/ss. Having family members tell me that their child had that ahah moment being in my class. When they come back and tell me all the things they are accomplishing. #tlap
A1: disappointed someone by trying to take care of something on their plate without their expressed knowledge. They took it as an insult. Now I will ask explicitly if someone needs help with work. #TLAP#PrincesofSerendip

A4: Besides Operation Christmas Child, the holiday food drive by Student Council, and our various charities, I plan to look for Ss who aren't enjoying the holidays approaching & try to meet some needs on the DL. #tlap
A4: Tomorrow is World Kindness Day. Each class has decided to celebrate differently but they are all trying to teach kindness in a way where students learn through doing. We can model it all day long #tlap

A3 I consider myself a late-bloomer so I'm extremely proud to have gotten my M.Ed and principal certification because there was a point were I didn't think I had it in me #tlap#PrincesOfSerendip
A1. I have been giving my all this year, & it's made a huge difference in our culture. At first I wasn't there enough for my family. #BalanceLAP has helped me make sure I focus on them 100% as well, they're my lifeline. #TLAP
A4: Oh my goodness! So many ways! World Kindness Day is TOMORROW! Several activities planned with students. Then the day after Thanksgiving is RAK Friday (not Black Friday!), then we hit 12 days of Christmas Kindness - SO MUCH JOY! Lots of opportunities to be kind! #tlap

A3: When I see our former Ss excelling on stage (and in life) at the next level, I always have a "proud Dad" moment. We have students who came to us lacking courage and belief in themselves, leave our program, walking in confidence and leading boldly. #tlap
Q3: The first prince went to work on a farm and discovered the feeling of pride in hard work. Describe an accomplishment you are proud of. #TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip

Hi Karen from the Gold Coast Qld 🇦🇺 jumping in late during break. Playground duty was covered today, 🙌🏼 so thought I'd join in. Favourite fairy tale is Beauty and the Beast - it's what's on the inside that counts. #TLAP#PrincesofSerendip
A3: I'm proud of the cool opportunities I've been fortunate to be a part of whether it's some awesome awards, being a part of a redesign school changing education in the state of KS, or launching my podcast. #tlap
A4 I started a @Flipgrid today with my staff where we are sharing different acts of kindness that we witness that make us smile and change our outlook on the day! Kindness stories are contagious! Should I open it up?? #tlap
A4: Each day is different but one of my favorite ways to show kindness is to smile. Smile with people. Make people smile.
Check on your friends. Listen to their worries. Be a shoulder. #tlap
A3 I'm proud of my prize possession...my one and only son, Kaleb.❤️
Also, I'm super proud to be a first gen graduate of anything. I fought a lot of obstacles to make that happen, and with multiple degrees + a love of learnering--I'm proud I didn't become a statistic. #tlap
A2. If I wasn't in education I would be a chef. I cooked all through high school & college. I loved the feeling of sending out a perfect steak & helping the waitress get a better tip due to great food. Coming is an art, I miss working in a kitchen. #TLAP
A3: Super proud to be mom to these two amazing kids, who are growing up WAY too fast! I cherish moments, like this weekend, where we are all together! #tlap
#tlap A4 My house it home to the #AlwaysBelieve#HallOfFame during the holidays. I make a walkthrough and highlight the great kids I have been blessed to get #BelieveSelfies with. Kids can walk through and get a selfie with the cut out #JediOfBelieve

A4: I don't set aside a day or time to spread kindness. Being kind and showing kindness is a part of who I am. If I go one day without helping someone, I feel like I have let myself down. #tlap
Just keep going for free coffee! lol #tlap I've had it happen to me a couple times too. Once it was a worker at Starbucks, I wonder if he gave me his coffee for the day!
A3.2: Our oldest daughter. She had a rough day dealing w/a mean girl but handled heartbreak with great courage and optimism. She is such a tender-hearted warrior, always willing to encourage others and me. Cannot wait to see her and return the favor by lifting her up. #tlap
A5: I was overwhelmed with gratitude when the staff of Quincy Elementary all made t-shirts for the release of The Path to Serendipity. I was so surprised and I loved celebrating with them! #TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip

#tlap A5 I am soon to become a published author. SO MANY people helped me to achieve this dream. My wife @AngelaToups the people at @GRHSABC and @GRHSIRadio founder @MrTBallyard that graciously helped edit the book. My dream is to inspire an #AlwaysBelieve school.

A5. Ive always been the type to befriend those that need one. Throughout my life I've been amazed by how listening to someone can change their entire world. #tlap
A4: This year, as with other years, I always find ways for our family to give to children in need, both here in Australia and overseas. We purchase gifts for children and donate to organisations that distrubute where they will bring joy. #TLAP#PrincesofSerendip
A5 I was filled with gratitude when @gcouros helped and supported me in getting ready for the dream job I wanted. From turning my blog into a digital portfolio to him giving me guidance during the hiring process. Thanks, GC! #tlap
A6 This isn’t something I’ve learned recently, but rather something I have to remind myself of regularly. I have to make time to take care of myself. I never say no and rarely put myself first when I know I need to sometimes. #PrincesofSerendip#tlap
A4: I plan on sharing kindness with students in our district who are in need or coud use cheering up. Secret Santa ——#tlap sharing meals, cooking for others

#tlap A6 Each Sunday @RiverPointe I am inspired about the true meaning of life. We are here to LOVE others. When you do this with kids your impact will turn into a legacy. Life isn't about you at all. The more you make your life about others, the greater your worth becomes.
A6: I learned that I always need to be me. I'm not made to teach like someone else. I'm not great being confined to one way of thinking. In order to give my Ss all they deserve I need the freedom to be the best I can be #tlap#PrincesofSerendip

A6- I am in the middle of a life lesson. I have been jumping, no, cannonballing into the world of Twitter and blogging and right out of my comfort zone. It's really enabled me to be better for my students! #TLAP
A6 Practice what I preach...when an opportuntiy presents itself, #Cannonballin!
Why not? We only live once.
It's always so scary, but I'm taking a risk and going to see where it leads. #tlap
A6. I've learned that to truly be happy & to make a difference you have to be yourself. You do what you know is right, regardless of how others view it. Don't settle for status quo or mediocrity. #tlap
Q7: The Princes of Serendip is based on a sixteenth-century Persian tale. What fable or fairytale would you want to rewrite and why? #TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip
Well it's been fun briefly joining in and trying to catch up, but I've gotta run! Can't wait to read the book @AllysonApsey - I ordered it today. 🙂 #TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip
A6: I stumbled upon a desire I never knew I had-to record my experiences. Next year, I am going to take a year to reflect on everything-teaching abroad and working in sped all these years. Plus, I plan on doing some traveling. #tlap

A6: It's important for me to be able to back up what I'm doing, because sometimes the things that I'm doing will come under fire and challenge the status quo (the more involved with Twitter and my #4OCFPLN, the more I want to change it all!) #tlap
A5: often 💕 I am often overwhelmed with gratitude. Thankful for my sons & excited for their today & their future. Thankful for the journey my life has been. And the stars when I look up at night. Thankful to even dance in the rain #TLAP
A6- Sometimes it’s okay to stop and be silly, just talk, instead of being a teaching robot. Those relationships are more important than making sure that I have crossed off every learning target for the day. #tlap
A6: I listened to someone in a Ted Talks state you can't teach 21st Century Skills in a 20th Century school. I asked myself isn't there an important lesson in balancing both, our Ss should be exposed to both. Still don't know if I agree with that statement! #tlap
A1: Earlier in my career I thought everything someone said to me required action. I was defensive and aggressive. I disappointed my Principal and I disappointed myself when I got into an argument with a co-worker.#tlap

A6: Be true to you!!! For so long I worried about pleasing everyone else. I’ve realized the importance of of focusing on what I have control over & doing what I believe in! #tlap
It was amazing! It was an honor to have worked with those teachers, especially since it was just a newbie to teaching. We had the car accident in August as class was starting and I was beginning my 2nd year. #tlap
A6: Every moment, every child, is unique. Yes, we build practices and systems and strive for predictability, but taking time to taste and live every moment, to hear every student, staff, family, etc. leads to a full life. #kidsdeserveit#tlap
A6: A lesson learned and I remind myself of daily is the importance of pausing. Take a moment or a few minutes to yourself when needed throughout the day. You can’t pour from an empty cup. Self care needs to be a priority in order for me to be my best self. #TLAP
A5. Last year when I was diagnosed with breast cancer- my family of teachers/staff, my kids & their parents & my own family 💕. The LOVE was & is amazing & I am so grateful❤️#tlap
A7: Cinderella, but really any Grimm Fairy tale that features a helpless female. There are lots of ways those princesses could have innovated from within their personal box. I would rewrite it to empower them. Or, I could rewrite one so that the male isn't easily duped. #tlap
A5 I was incredibly overwhelmed when even though I moved schools this year. A family sent me an arrangement to my new school! 😭Wishing me a wonderful year! #tlap#PrincesOfSerendip
A7: I'd like to rewrite some Greek Myths! We are entering into the odyssey with 9th graders! I wa t them into every it as I was when I was their age. Shout out to Ms. Hamburger for the exposure!
#TLAP
A6: when my daughter didn’t get much playing time in her soccer tournament, we built her up & stood up for her. She said it feels so good that my family loves me & is proud of me! #tlap stand up for what is right! All players need to contribute to the team ⚽️👏✅
Take 2 (no typo) 🤪 A6 Practice what I preach...when an opportunity presents itself, #Cannonballin!
Why not? We only live once.
It's always so scary, but I'm taking a risk and going to see where it leads. #tlap
A6: Feeling especially grateful lately for the amazing friends and family in my life that are always there for me unconditionally and love exactly as I am. Making sure to be present always and cherishing moments with those I love. #tlap
A7: I would LOVE to write a book about students who impacted me as an educator. Each STOP in the book would be a fairytale that reveals what they taught me. I bet we all have a Cinderella story, the Seven Dwarfs, or a Beauty and the Beast. @burgessdave#tlap
Q7: The Princes of Serendip is based on a sixteenth-century Persian tale. What fable or fairytale would you want to rewrite and why? #TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip
My wife and I had been married one month to the day when we had this accident. Three compression fractures in my back-T3, T4, and T5. Never have been in so much pain in all my life. Back brace for 2 and 1/2 months. Not the best way to spend one's first year of marriage #tlap
#tlap A7 I would rewrite Peter Pan so that Tinker Bell would be besties with Wendie. Just saying... My favorite ride at Disney World was the Peter Pan ride. Flying above London was just amazing. #ThinkOfAWonderfulThought#YouCanFly
A7: Cinderella has always been my favorite. If I could rewrite it I would love 4 her father 2B a part of her life. I would write him lost and eventually finding his way home. Maybe just in time 4 the wedding It saddens me that she lost both her parents at such a young age. #tlap
Q7: The Princes of Serendip is based on a sixteenth-century Persian tale. What fable or fairytale would you want to rewrite and why? #TLAP#PrincesOfSerendip
A7: This is a great question and I feel like so many of them have been rewritten, but I'm going to have to echo @SteinbrinkLaura and re-write damsels in distress out of the narrative! #tlap
A6 I have learned that it’s important to surround yourself with people who are different from you and to listen and learn from them! Wish I would have done this years ago. #tlap
#tlap Hopefully I can spend the last years of my teaching career influencing other educators on the power of #AlwaysBelieve in Yourself as the first rule. #ItWorks and is the secret to #GrowthMindset
In reply to
@tamaraletter, @AngelaToups, @GRHSABC, @GRHSIRadio, @MrTBallyard
A7: The Boy Who Cried Wolf b/c he was just a bored kid testing limits...that is the kid who needed a bit more patience, maybe a buddy in the field or on the hill to keep him company, not a lesson in adults saying we'll ignore you until an emergency. #tlap
Years ago. Been married a long time. My back hurts just thinking about that experience. I realized how tough my wife is. #tlap 14 year later and we are still going strong.
A7. I honestly don't know what fairy tale I'd rewrite. I love them all so much. Maybe I'll write my own, already got some ideas after this chat! Thanx so much! #tlap
A7: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. I’d love to tell it from a teachers viewpoint. Including the unique abilities for each student and how we combine them all to live happily ever after! #TLAP
And I'm fine with them being in distress, but couldn't they innovate something about their plight? Do they have to only be rescued? Can they aid the prince in rescuing them? Can they find a way to escape & meet up with their rescuer as they are escaping? :) #tlap
Thank you SO much for joining us tonight! You are amazing!
You can pick up your copy of The Princes of Serendip on Amazon: https://t.co/DVxBwDi4nI#TLAP
A7- I would rewrite all the Fairytales where the Prince has to save the day for the Princess. The Princess would save themselves and everyone too. They would kick butt because they are women and they would ROAR! #tlap
A6: Feeling especially grateful lately for the amazing friends and family in my life that are always there for me unconditionally and love me exactly as I am. Try to be present always and cherishing moments with those I love. #tlap
A7: I want to rewrite the Hansel and Gretel story from the point of view of the witch. The witch would not be evil or insensitive. The witch would be welcoming and a hero to the kids. She would help them home. #tlap
Thanks, Allyson, for steering the #tlap ship tonight! You NAILED it! #PrincesofSerendip If you haven't purchased this gem, do yourself a favor and click the link below! You won't regret it. :)
