It’s safe to say that 2020 has been a complex, challenging, and innovative year.

So much of our work as coaches is about thinking forward, about making instructional change to better support students. We plan for professional learning, we collaborate with teachers in the classroom and we cultivate learning communities to sustain our work. We are constantly setting goals and making professional plans that often add ideas, concepts, practices or strategies to our already full plates. But what if we decided that the best next step for our professional learning was to let go of something instead? Listen to today’s episode on how to do just that.

I have had many conversations with fellow literacy coaches on the importance of lifelong learning and the impact it can have on our coaching. In my experience, teachers who embrace a lifelong learning mindset listen, think, act, teach and lead differently. They are enthusiastic learners and look forward to entering the classroom. They embrace professional learning opportunities and have a positive attitude about new ideas and initiatives. They look forward to collaborating with others around instruction and practice and make connections to the classroom. Over time, I have realized while some might be born with this lifelong-learning mindset, it is something that we must consciously embrace and cultivate. And I’ve got a few ideas on how we can do just that. Listen in!
