Some thoughts and reflections on the power of relationships (experienced through our Instructional Coaching Initiative) linkedin.com/pulse/empowerin… #Instructionalcoaching
One of the best portions of New Teacher Orientation is our panel of GPPSS teachers with 1-3 years experience sharing their stories and answering questions to our new staff. What an amazing crew! #gppssproud #gppssvoices
GPPSS Instructional Coaches are working with our new teachers to help share common language on what coaching is within our district! Great work ahead!
Yeah? And?

My second grader just told me about a video she watches about a dog puppet that teaches kids about economics, and it’s “really funny”. Who is this kid? @AllemonStacey - no joke. She’s watching it on YouTube as we speak.
My kids voluntarily watched “Napoleon Dynamite” last night, and now we’re quoting it like it’s 2004 this morning. #proudfather
One year ago today, several educators packed into a room to plan for the unknown in GPPSS. I can recognize that “asynchronous” wasn’t an everyday word, so “not live” was written down to for explanation. One year later, and that moment is still frozen in time.
Had a great chat with @Joe_Sanfelippo today about what items of remote learning can still be attainable in the classroom. Collaboration is key, and finding ways to CREATE TOGETHER. He’s a Badgers fan, but I won’t hold it against him. #macul21
My daughter’s class has a company, and they’re rockin’ it out! The program has taught these kids so much! Check out the website to see what’s goin’ on in the 4th grade. PBL at its finest! @Howeys4th #miched
Our new Fan Faces banner arrived!!🎉😊We’re hoping to hit our goal of $1000 in sales by 3/19/21, currently we’re at $883! 😉#advertising #edcorp fanfaces.org @gpmonteith @RWScholars @GPSchools @AudReimer
When we return to full in person meetings, what Zoom features will be missed, and can we bring those to the in-person rooms? (Eg: I love the chat bar. Allows for people to process without interrupting).
I’m not ashamed to admit that I’ve joined the world of home coffee brewing via pour over, and that has made the Sunday morning difference.

Most pressing question of the day: What is the most “CVS” song out there? I’m going with “3AM” by Matchbox Twenty or that one Savage Garden song about living with you on a mountain... – at Harper Woods, MI
Wanted to give a local restaurant an amazing shout out - @DinerSidestreet ! They are extremely accommodating as always. Remember during these times if you’re choosing to order take out, give your local restaurants some love! – at Grosse Pointe, MI
