Perfect adverbs! This applies to staff, parents, students....EVERYONE!
checking out for the night family emergency, I'll be sure to read the tweets later though!!!
Hate to sound cliche. Growth mindset. Be open to feedback. Learn. Be vulnerable. Challenge myself and others. Be creative.
I think beginner’s mindset is how you enter the task - growth mindset is how you engage in the task
A1: Stay away from the negative vibes - turn them around
A1 Highlight small victories, celebrate positivity observed in others' words, actions

A2: Fewer questions with one right answer. More divergent thinking opportunities.
A2 I will encourage my colleagues to provide opportunities for students to design, invent, or express themselves.

A1 I plan to "awaken" the positive culture by body language, more enthusiasm, and continuing to learn the students interests/needs
A2. Ss need to be given freedom and choice in their learning - assessment should open doors for Ss, not close them
A2 I must provide teachers with time/opportunities to create & engage with one another.
A2: Giving Ss opportunities to create positive change gets them engaged big time! - relate "education" with leadership
Was just thinking the same thing. Choice is huge! https://t.co/jRPmOq3jA0

A:2 focus on have Ss discover & build upon strengths & continue to foster a community of creativity and risk taking
Is it enough to simply BE "positive?" Or do we need to focus on positivity with driven purpose?
These are great goals. Could a exist in each classroom in some way?
A2: We hope that we can inspire teachers to be creative by providing new resources for them to use in their classrooms
A2: Open-ended, challenging tasks.
On a scale of 1-10, If you rate yourself as a "6," moving to "10" feels impossible. Going from 6 to 7 is attainable.
I agree - being positive without a vision for engaged learning is a temporary fix
Need to have positivity with results. Those results will cause more to follow
Perhaps - it started with student ideas and leadership. We can expand
A2 plan to "awaken" positive culture by being relational and learning more about Ss passions, talents, Ts' too!
A2 I plan to become more prepared, show students I care about their learning, then their creativity and engagement becomes routine
That is an excellent analogy, John. Many give up too soon.
A2: For me this has come down to giving them permission to be creative and saying yes when they have ideas. Just don't stifle it.
At our school we refer to results as “beautiful work”. Students know when their learning is impactful
Awesome that student ideas/voice are included. What age level(s)?
A2 by empowering the students with a voice and mindset of ownership.
Yes! I've started a mini one in mine and great resources on even mobile ones at https://t.co/ApN3MG5r91
