After speaking with my cooperating teacher about strategies to improve working with this group, I felt better equipped to manage the group. She told me that she usually, but not always, starts the discussion with students who are quieter to give them a chance to speak.

Guiding our kids into their fast-changing futures. Not Too Much Light at the End of the Jobs Tunnel. November 20, 2013. So here’s a sobering statistic from CNN Money. The trend shows no sign of slowing down. And if you think it’s bad here, it’s even worse in Europe. The unemployment rate for those 25 and younger is topping 50% in many countries, and the trend lines there are even more depressing.

Molehills out of mountains. Musings on Education, Leadership and Social Good. July 13, 2012. Cc flickr photo by HatHome. An honest admission…. There are so many distractions…testing, budgets, inboxes, meetings, curriculum requirements, and paper work ad nauseam. Without mindful consideration, it is so easy to get caught up in our adult world, with adult problems, and forget our purpose – to serve the children who have been entrusted to our care. What is in the best interest of the students whom I serve?
