Summer

As I visit my schools during these last days with students, I see students and teachers that are ready for a break. This has been a hard year for teachers...new curriculum, new teaching strategies, different district expectations, and more. Over the course of the year, students have been busy exploring and learning core subject areas in large blocks of time, while teachers were working hard to make sure the new curriculum was covered.

I just want to say to all, enjoy your break this summer, but don't take a break from learning. Summer would be a great opportunity to build your Professional (Personal) Learning Network. Explore Twitter, read blogs, maybe even explore a MOOC or two, but learn something new.

Commit yourself to lifelong learning. The most valuable asset you’ll ever have is your mind and what you put into it.
