This hits home especially in our district. We are running a school that we feel is dysfunctional, but at the same time we have not changed anything because we are getting results?

You can only do what the system allows you

very true Victoria, I hear teachers complain about not liking certain curriculums for math but if it's working.. we need to remember what is best for the students is what is best for us

Victoria - I agree.  We have to remember they are living in a different world then we are. They learn differently then we did and they understand information differently. We need to focus on what works for them

I am struggling with that "best decision for kids" with my choice of reading intervention program our school is currently using - I am really trying to help the staff delivering the intervention understand that just because we, as adults, don't love the design of the lesson - it doesn't mean it's not working for the students --- adults think it's boring or robotic -- I encourage them to stick it out and let the data show if it is working or not -- it's tough, but we need to let the data prove us wrong, not just want we think is boring

10,000 Rule: It makes me think about access for ALL students - students who grow up with families who can pay for "traveling teams", violin lessons, etc - their children get more practice - become "masters" - thinking about all the missed talent out there because of resources

My daughter was a January baby and I wished she could have gone to school at 4.9 years old. She spent K-3 very ahead of her peers, but luckily her school accommodated with enrichment and allowed her to go to the grade above for ELA. But now, as a fourth grader, she is still slightly above, but the work is getting more difficult the playing field seems to be leveled and now I see why perhaps starting her at 4.9 would not have been a good idea.

Yes....IDEA has a recommendation, I have been looking into it because I currently have a class with 72% of the students on IEP's with a math disability. All laws and policies should have a specific number. The special education population and the homeless population have similar policies and procedures that schools tend to over look.

that inequity in the laws for homelessness reminds me of the inequities for sped kids. I know Jenna & I have talked a lot about how the IDEA will have very basic "recommendations" that don't really get students what they need, it seems like this is similar.

I have had many students who were homeless. even once they had housing, they still were traumatized. For example, constantly stealing food, money, etc. even years after being in a stable home.

I read Culturize over the past couple of weeks for a book group I'm in in my district. Super powerful. Based on simple principles, but just a fantastic read. I like the way you put a special ed. spin on it, Sarah.

I always try to emphasize with my students that math might be a struggle, but having confidence in your ability, makes a huge difference in the outcome. I feel like confidence goes hand and hand with high expectations

I think that is so important - recognizing your own personal strengths and weaknesses and capitalizing on them -- with incorporating learning from historical figures

it's interesting we are always looking for new ways of looking at leadership when sometimes we can learn so much from looking at great leaders in history!
