I was recently having a conversation with a few of my coworkers about some of my frustrations this year and how I believe there are simple things we as a staff could be doing that would help us all be better teachers. It finally hit me, why don't I do some of the things by myself (at least the ones that I can)? Why do I believe I need to wait until the whole staff or our administration makes changes? During our work time (in-service) today, I made a list of all the changes that I would like to see in my building that I believe I can do now without other teachers/administration.
The work may seem up hill, but instead of complaining I want to try to do something about it.
Changes I Can Make...
- Students walking quietly in a straight line in the hallway.
- Not yelling or talking over students.
- Observing other teachers and learning from them.
- Thanking other teachers for their help and encouragement.
- Using more technology in my classroom.
What changes would you like to see in your building? Are you able to do any of them by yourself? Thank you for reading.
