With every lesson plan we craft as teachers, there must be a student learning goal. What I am learning, that concurrently with that, I need to have a teacher learning goal (TLG) as well.
The TLG for me, this week was just exploring my tools of engagement. I have learned a variety of tools to use with all ages that are the kind of "tools" that I have gleaned from both the training and the participants.
When I am learning, it takes me a bit longer to process what ways I am learning. But I realized yesterday, I am a sponge and a lifetime learner. I don't have all the answers but my heart is open to ideas. This week is affirming that as well.
One of my truths, is that I don't always celebrate what I am good at and I feel inferior to those around me. This workshop, is giving me a release from that unjustified reasoning. That may me goal 2-celebrate what you know.
