Weekly Inspo Vids - Week Seventeen
Hello!
Man alive, it’s been refreshing to have some downtime this week. As I mentioned earlier, I had the entire week off due to a few furlough days. On top of that, all the usual extracurricular activities took a break too. That meant no big obligations—just time to hang out with my wife and kids. I needed it so much. I hope you’ve had a chance to enjoy a bit of rest too, even if it wasn’t a full five days.
Here’s what’s coming up this week:
It’s been a while since we’ve shared a good old-fashioned “feel-good” video. I think this one hits the mark—and you might want to have some tissues handy!
We’re starting a new 6–8 week series for Emailable PD focused on Student Ownership of Learning. These weekly segments will be shorter than usual and can be used individually, but will also build on each other. Your teachers will gain insights each week while also following a cohesive theme. You’ll also notice a fresh design aesthetic for this series.
On a personal note, my Texas A&M Aggies face off against the Texas Longhorns tonight! This is the first time these arch-rivals have played since 2011, and it’s already the most expensive college football game in history, with resale tickets ranging from $500 to $16,000 each. Gig ’em Aggies!
There’s a lot happening! I hope you find this week’s resources helpful and engaging.
Enjoy!

As mentioned earlier, we’re kicking off a short 6–8 week series on Student Ownership of Learning. This week’s focus is on setting goals. We’ll explore an intriguing study that highlights the effectiveness of writing goals down and being held accountable. Let’s dive into how you can apply this concept to benefit your students.
