Sometimes, meetings about school, for school that make you think about school just stink.
Today I was at a training because I graciously volunteer
was roped in to lead/facilitate a Learning Team at my school. Learning Teams are sort of like PLCs. My team is comprised of 1st and 2nd grade teachers. We have a 7 step protocol that we follow. It begins by choosing a need and ends with evaluating our lesson delivery/ instructional approach and student growth. 1st and 2nd graders are a lot a like, but they are also really different and have different needs. In theory, it's a great way to have time to dig into what's great practice with your colleagues. In reality, it becomes laborious and resented. It's great to lead a meeting where that is the sentiment :) Um-huh, just loads of fun. Well, today I had to go to a mid-year facilitator workshop.
My brain hurts.
Oh, and after the training, I had to race back to school to lead my team in a our weekly Learning Team meeting.
Did I mention it was loads of fun already?
Anywho, I am SOOOOOOO ready to be with my Littles tomorrow. I lurve being with them and being a teacher. I just don't necessarily like all the other hoops that we have to jump through to prove ourselves.
So, after my day, I found this and it made me LOL---fo real----outloud :)
