Learning Is Our Work

Learning is our work in education.  Every decision from central office, the principals office, or the classroom must reflect on the impact of learning based on daily decision.  The end of the school year is always a challenging time - we look towards the finish line and at the same time we begin to reflect on what changes we must make to move learning forward for the next school year.

The questions I have to ask myself are.....
        Did I celebrate success with the group I lead?
        What was I trying to accomplish this school year?
        What did I do to achieve my goals?
        What would I do differently?

The end of the school year is for reflection, as hard as it is when we are tired. I still have a fire inside of me to learn, share, collaborate and impact students.  What I must do over the summer is to find the fuel to ignite this desire to improve learning as the new school year approaches. I will reach out through my PLN on Twitter to find new ways to impact the learning for all.  After all, learning is our work!
