Time for Teachership

In this episode we are discussing how to take away the rules for creative writing. So many kids may not like writing because we put writing in a box, follow these rules, these prompts, etc. There is no celebration of life or emotions which makes it hard for them to connect to the writing. In John's experience, he advocates for making mindset shifts to experience emotion in pure form and transmit those emotions to activism. John also reads some of his own poetry and experiences the emotions in his own writing. Such a powerful episode! I hope you find it helpful and inspiring and remember to check out my blogpost-Link in Bio!

Today, I am discussing how to pay for your professional development for yourself or for a teacher, and new funding initiatives and how to use them. Effective professional development enables leaders and teachers to develop the knowledge and skills they need to address students' learning challenges. I cover Title I and Title II funding which are the most common funding sources and go into more detail about Title IV a commonly overlooked source for funding and ESSER.

Understanding the experiences of children without judging them is a move we need to make in order to be sure that all children get the education they need and deserve. In this episode I talk with Taryn Givan about Campus Leadership Teams as part of her program called Leader in Me. Leader in Me aims to empower more educators with practices that connect culture, academics, and leadership. They use methods like the 7 habits of highly effective people and social emotional learning to increase student confidence, give students more leadership skills, help school staff feel supported, and drive school achievements.

In Podcast Episode 30 of the Time For Teachership Podcast I am talking with Lejla Bilal about giving everyone within a school setting a voice and on shifting from buy-in mentality to shared leadership. When we are talking about adaptive leadership we need to name the elephant in the room AND:

- identify the key players

- determine what are the challenges

- strategize how we can resolve issues

- and do it collectively (including ourselves)

Right now, the need for equity training at schools is getting higher, not lower. It's apparent that teachers still haven't built the capacity or habit of doing the work on their own. According to today's guest, Dr. Eakins, the goal is for school members to get all the tools they need to take charge of their own social justice efforts. Tune in to hear us talk about what equity training really involves and why teachers shouldn't assume they don't need it.

If you regularly struggle with having time for important discussions with students, now is the time to change that! With one thing after another coming up in the news and in our communities, we can't afford to stay silent on these issues that are affecting our students.

Unfortunately, the current model you might be using is not going to give you the flexibility you need to include more current events in your schedule. Luckily, I know all the shifts that are needed to engage more students in the things that matter. After tuning in, leave a review and let me know what you think.
