As we approach the end of the school year, here is a kindness calendar with optional daily ideas for your classrooms. My #dg58learns 7th graders from last year helped me create it. Hopefully it will spark conversations about spreading kindness in your communities. #ChooseKind

A4: I use story telling to engage & inspire my team.I purposefully include personal information about my yoga training/practice/teaching, travel, stories about time spent with my family-this way I am normalizing, leading by example, & hopefully inspiring. #AppleEDULeaderChat


A3: Engaging with art, attending very cool professional learning, reading, practicing yoga #AppleEDULeaderChat


A2: Refreshing my leadership spirit includes being around the learners (purpose), engaging in the life of the school (teaching a lesson, leading a talk, participating in a meeting with the kids), speaking to community members, engaging n cool partnerships #AppleEDULeaderChat

A4: Supports us in measuring what matters & make changes that are relevant to the community. Through action research, educators research a topic that is relevant to impacting learning. Throughout the process they learn how to measure what matters #AppleEDULeaderChat


A2: Data can be used to understand what we are measuring & to understand if what we are measuring is relevant to the changes we want to make. Data needs to inform the school its needs & what will be the next course of action #AppleEDULeaderChat

Got a 2.4 GPA my first semester in college. Thought maybe I wasn’t cut out for engineering. Today I’ve landed two spacecraft on Mars, and am now designing one for the Moon. STEM is hard for everyone. Grades ultimately aren’t what matter. Curiosity and perseverance matter.

New post! Some musings on the tricky topic of teaching Learning Dispositions. This stuff is hard. I think I've gained a bit more insight on it... Let me know if you agree! ollielovell.com/on-education/d… ft @RethinkingJames @Rethinking_Kate @GuyClaxton and @teacherhead


We need to embrace innovation to lead change! Let’s do this 😉

5 Ways Educators Can Start Innovating: new Usable Knowledge feature on the @HGSE website about our new book Inquiry-Driven Innovation @ProjectZeroHGSE bit.ly/3yuOvFf #innovation



Sounds like @EscolaConcept let’s make learning matter every day!

@FlossieSGChua shared in #PZSparks that learning that matters is about WHAT we teach first & foremost, instead of HOW. Are schools addressing the key challenge of staying relevant in the complex world? Many useful tools. Can't wait for the new Leading Learning that Matters book!
