Redefining Learning for the Future

What is the Narrative of Your Classroom?

As educators begin week two and continue to craft the narrative of the classroom I wanted to include a short video from a 4th grade teacher who is introducing himself to the parents/guardians and students. While the expectation is definitely not to create a video, although anyone is welcome to do so, it is important to start thinking about how educators will tell the story of their classrooms. What messages do educators want to share about the priorities and learning experiences students can expect and how do educators plan to break down the walls so that parents/guardians have a better sense of what their students are experiencing in and out of the classroom?

Lollipop Moments

Which lollipop moments have significantly impacted you as a learner and as a person?
 
   As we continue to reflect as a faculty on our learning journey, it was great to feel the energy in the room during our first Professional Development Day and hear so many interesting conversations about ideas for the year ahead. There is still much to figure out but I am always so impressed with the creativity, innovation, and compassion shown by this faculty. Pam Moran and Ira Socol left truly excited about the work that HHS is doing and eager to hear about the Vision of a Graduate as we move forward. In keeping with the theme of lollipop moments (those small moments that we might not even remember but that are so significant to someone else) I am including the following short video that further highlights lollipop moments.
