March 12 PD Feedback by Angela Strickland https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd What are your takeaways from yesterday's professional learning? What spoke to you the most in each session? Why? en-us 2018-03-05 22:59:12 UTC 2018-03-15 14:50:37 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Doubleheart.png I found the information on mindset to be the most interesting. It makes sense that we have many students with a fixed mindset who are afraid to try. I feel that changing mindset needs to start with the adults. Otherwise, we don't have change or feel that we need change. https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241299075 I am rethinking how I would react to an emergency in our school.  I would like more discussion on our plan if we are out of our classroom such as the lunchroom.

How do we develop this in ourselves and our students?]]> 2018-03-13 13:03:43 UTC https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241338122 https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241340703 We are not teaching kids that have to work to eat !

I really like what one had to say about growth and set mind set. I even told my kids about it at practice. :D During the second session on safety I enjoyed getting to practice some self defense. ]]> 2018-03-13 13:51:06 UTC https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241372301 Take Aways taragreen https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241426976 Probably the most beneficial part of yesterday's PD was the PLC meeting with our content area team at the end of the day. We actually were able to discuss what was going on in our classrooms and come up with a game plan going forward to be more vertically aligned. As far as the other part of the day, I think it was good and helpful; however, I felt a little overwhelmed by the end of the day.]]> 2018-03-13 15:09:34 UTC https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241426976 Growth learning view vs fixed learning view mmoore84 https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241463732

We, as teachers, need to make sure we are promoting a growth mindset so that all learners know they have the potential to grow and succeed! ]]> 2018-03-13 16:10:50 UTC https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241471828 Growth Mindset- https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241606382 Growth mindset is key. How do we foster a growth mindset in an educational system that still ultimately rewards grades and intelligence? ]]> 2018-03-13 19:51:49 UTC https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241606382 https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241608968 Growth mindsets are hard to foster in children and adults. However if we don't try, students may shut down in their learning with a fear of failure and be stuck in a fixed mindset. I also found it interesting that we need to praise the process instead of just intelligence; I did not realize that negatively affected our students.]]> 2018-03-13 19:58:54 UTC https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241608968 A fixed mindset leads to low motivation, achievement, and in the end fixes the height of success! https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241610872 2018-03-13 20:04:19 UTC https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241610872 Video/Safety training jcantelmo https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241641325 I thought the video on fixed vs growth mindsets and the history of public education was interesting. It might be helpful to give the students a survey to identify what type of learner they are. I would like to see us adopt one of the emergency safety models presented and practice it so that students would know what to do no matter where they are. ]]> 2018-03-13 21:37:18 UTC https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241641325 I liked the video about the mindset of growth instead of fixed. Just going to be a long process with our demographics and student behavior to get there! A lot of good info in the video but we still have to give grades to show student mastery so very difficult to grade/assess process of student thinking https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241669934 2018-03-14 00:13:24 UTC https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241669934 Relationships and safety https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241688335 Building relationships with students was a big factor that I learned. 
I see in buolfibbg the relationship could improve a students to learn. Learning safety techniques to better protect my students in myself from intruders and finally the growth mindset we all have room to grow.

I also enjoyed the safety session.  It made me re-think how I would react to an emergency situation in our school.    ]]> 2018-03-14 13:16:26 UTC https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241851835 Vision, Mindset and Safety https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241915545 Helping students to achieve new heights in college, career, and life.  The vision is short and memorable.  I am especially glad that achievement in “life” was included, implying that we need to develop whole humans, not just little intellects.  Morals and integrity and work ethic and social skills ARE the curriculum, not just bonus points.  
 
Cultivating a growth mindset is difficult.  We need to develop academic pit bulls: a steeled resolve to crack the code, unearth the treasure, and solve the world’s problems.   It’s hard to get there, to be sure.  It requires challenge, and clear structure for how to succeed under challenge, and especially grace to know that when we fail it’s not the end of the story for us.  I think accomplishing a growth mindset among our students will require every teacher, every principal, every parent, and every coach in the end.  It requires an entire culture to develop.  There are no easy answers.  
 
Safety training was a highlight to be sure.  I think we need to follow up with our teams to discuss each team member’s plan, since the thrust of what was said is “this is up to you as a teacher to take authority and protect your kids.”

It was very satisfying to watch one person pull all of the ideals and problems of education together. https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241934702 2018-03-14 15:19:30 UTC https://padlet.com/astrickland7/vzbna87j58yd/wish/241934702
