texting and emailing are both great for me :)

I am available almost any time or day- my schedule is very open during the summer, I'm happy to "meet" using the padlet, too! Whatever works best for the group

I hope to learn how to help both new teachers and veteran teachers without seeming like I want to "be in charge" of them

The Padlet platform is a great way to document our meeting. I am available on Monday and Wednesday after 11.

I have just retired from teaching. I have taught for 22 years, and for 12 of those years, I had the great privilege of teaching students with dyslexia. In those 12 years, I had the great opportunity to teach other educators about dyslexia. However, I could have been more effective if I had come from a coaching perspective. I hope to gain some more knowledge on how to coach teachers in a manner that allows them to develop a growth-centered, reflective, and strengths-based model.

I agree with you both and would love to use this Padlet platform for our meetings. I have a 2 year old and 4 year old, so using this platform will allow me more flexibility!

I hope to learn skills that will allow me to help my teammates. Also, one of my goals is to become an instructional coach in the future, and I am excited to see what I will learn from this book club!

Which part would you like to share?

We give so much to others that we neglect our mental health, family, and physical health. We over serve because we are trained to have the Energizer Bunny Mindset. This mindset limits our boundaries, which leads to exhaustion and burnout. I believe this book gives us a chance to help coach teachers on how to shift their mindsets from a deficit perspective to a strength perspective. A teacher who is thriving understands how to regulate their emotion and work-life balance. They are confident and joyful. These behaviors affect their students because the student will benefit from a teacher who is present, positive, and passionate, not drained. This is why, as a coach, I like the part of sustainability in the Wellness Model.

I was wondering why this looked like this, and then I realized, I had comments turned off. I updated it, so you can comment on teach other's posts. :)
