It's perihelion day, Today. In Northern Hemisphere we're right in the middle of winter, but Earth is actually at its closest position to the Sun. Today the Earth is 5 million kilometeres closer to the Sun than it is are in early July. So why isn't hotter than in July?

We hire teachers for their strengths, yet we fixate on managing their perceived weaknesses. Imagine the impact if we not only identified and celebrated strengths but also created a culture actively nurturing and amplifying them!

Timed tests donβt measure what students know. They assess how students perform under stress. Data: tests under time pressure underestimate the abilities of girlsβespecially in math, where test anxiety is high. If students can't finish a test, make it shorter or give more time.

You can't administrate a school to excellence. But when everyone contributes their talents, supports each other, feels valued, and appreciated, you create a team culture that leads to excellence.

Principals, stock up on Post-it notes for fall! When you visit classrooms, leave a post it note on their desk telling them how lucky their students are to have them & share something you learned or enjoyed about the visit. I call them "Post-its of Praise"
