It was great to share all the "growing" we did as educators during the beginning of the pandemic. It is certainly important to continue to monitor ourselves and each other as education changes.

We had some great discussion about the culture of our school in relation to their home lives, whether good or bad, and how that impacts our student’s learning.

I am interested in learning more about ways to incorporate the special education laws in daily practice. It would have been nice to know there was a possibility of going over the time by 20 minutes.

I enjoyed listening to and sharing experiences related to the challenges of providing engaging topics and opportunities for students during the eLearning days of 2019.

With the frequent use of Social Media in our daily lives, this topic is extremely important to address. The collaboration with staff from all buildings was refreshing. After our discussion, it is evident that we can help our students use social media as a positive learning tool if we are intentional about our approach. The book provides many great examples of young students utilizing social media to do great things in our world. There is no reason our students cannot create the same type of positive outcomes with their use of social media. #WhyNotUs?

I realize I have been a carrot in my life. I realize I am in danger of being an egg this year. I will strive to be a coffee bean.

Food for thought from this quote. "True discipline for students begins with adult brain that feels safe, calm, and still."

Very much enjoyed learning about the history of how special education came about!

I didn't realize how the laws from state to state varied so much. I look forward to learning more about special education!

Loved working with my hands and with a group. Also reflecting on past, present, and future situations when I was the egg, carrot, or coffee bean

The more Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE’s) teens and adults have directly impact brain development. Unfortunately, many of our students would have a high number if given the short quiz.

It was great to talk about ELearning and how to take care of ourselves as we incorporate ELearning.

Time well spent on an important, yet at times uncomfortable, topic.

What could be better than this? I am so excited to get to know the people in my group better!

I spoke about the carrot, egg, and coffee bean lesson a few years ago at the NJHS induction, but I had not read Gordon's illustrated fable. I also broke the egg in my car on the way home! I enjoyed making the energy bars (4 ingredients=my limit.)

It was fun getting to spend time with people I don't really know and try something new. Can't wait to mingle with new group members next week.

Fun to be with staff and creating! Enjoyed the jazz music!

I am by nature a collaborative learner so I always enjoy a chance to read and chat and learn from peers. I know this book and some its ideas are going to challenge me, but I think that challenge will spur some much needed growth.

The Social LEADia PLC had a great conversation over our assumptions of social media and how our students engage in social media. I was very encouraged at how willing this group is to diving deeper into the use of social media in the classroom. #WDpride #BELIEVE

It was great getting to collaborate with other staff that I haven't really gotten a chance to talk to very much so far!

I enjoyed the cooking collaboration in our group, along with having the opportunity to make something for the entire staff :)
