As I look forward to growing with my learners, who enrich my experiences on the how and the why of the learning process.
Every day, I look forward to engaging with my learners and taking actions in applying meaningful learning situations that make an impact on their thinking and lifetime skills by connecting compassion, empathy and valuing each other, also reaching to a local and a global audience for feedback.
By investing time to learn with the learners, is to take action to care, share and take risks. Actions that the learners and I will continue to explore and learn from:
- investing time to reflect on the learning process.
- giving feedback and getting feedback
- supporting risk-taking to experience the culture of emotional learning together
- taking action to learn over time and develop the thinking together
- being mindful of everything around them
- changing and impacting someone in their daily lives
- exploring the discomfort of learning
- being grateful and positive for attending school every day
- being fearless with discomfort
- choosing to matter
- learning not to fit in
- allowing tensions in determining next steps
- more of goal getting than just goal setting
