Keep your face always toward the sunshine - and shadows will fall behind you.- -Walt Whitman--
One of my all-time favorite quotes. It has true power in its words.
Kudos-
-Thank you, Kadee and Judy. I visited both of your rooms today and observed students engaged and learning.
-Thank you, Tye and Crew. The fire drill went well.
-Thank you, Sheila, for keeping us fed!
-Thank you, Jason - you can always respond to my web/program/computer requests.

CEL to Ponder:
P4 Communication of learning target(s)
-The teacher communicates the learning target(s) through verbal and visual strategies, checks for student understanding of the learning target(s), and references the target(s) throughout instruction.
A Litter Humor:
-"I asked my dog what's two minus two. He said nothing."
-"What did Baby Corn say to Mama Corn?" "Where's Pop Corn?"
-"What's the best thing about Switzerland?" "I don't know, but the flag is a big plus."
-"What does a sprinter eat before a race?" "Nothing, they fast!"
-"Where do you learn to make a banana split?" "Sundae school."

Reflection:
If not now, when?
