Quotables

I have stopped talking about the tools and started talking about the function. I always ask what they are trying to accomplish.

We need to make sure that what we believe about learning connects to what’s happening in the world.

So often, what we do in schools and what we do in classrooms may or may not match up to what we believe about learning.

Do our kids find joy in our classrooms and what is the source of that joy?

We never need to fix students. We need to create the spaces and the experiences that remove the barrier.

Really hone in on what you want to learn and how that impacts the learners in your classroom.

How are we celebrating all of our learners and how are we celebrating learning more than achievement?

If we really want to learn and we really want to do the best work for our kids, it isn’t just roses, it is kind of a lot of thorns too. You have to find the balance.
