Blogs are so useful, seriously, they are!

I became a teacher when I was 35 after spending ten years in church ministry.  As I prepared for my first interview and wondered why in the world anyone would want to hire a 35 year old first year teacher, my husband, an AP, tried to coach me through some interview questions.  He threw words at me like differentiation and collaboration.  Having no experience in the classroom or in a school setting at all, those words meant absolutely nothing to me.  Little did I know how valuable the word collaborate would become for me in the years to come.

In my opinion, collaboration is vital to the success of any organization, especially schools. Blogs allow just that, collaboration amongst educational leaders.  Talking, sharing, COLLABORATING, ultimately for one purpose, improved student achievement and success.

I'm excited to be a blogger, I've tried to get my kids to join or just follow my blog, but for reason, they aren't interested in action research. 

Til next time...
