Weekly Inspo Vids - Week Twelve
Hello friends,
Happy weekend! I hope you’re all gearing up for an exciting Halloween week. Nothing unexpected ever happens at school around this time of year! Should be a piece of cake.
If you’re wondering, we usually let my son choose our costumes. This year, we’re going as the Ninja Turtles. I thought I would snag Leonardo, the fearless leader, but my five-year-old insisted that he fits that bill. I wholeheartedly endorse him. So, I’ve been (ever so slightly) demoted to Raphael. the twins are Donatello and Michelangelo, and my wife will be none other than the great April O’Neill. Should be fun!
Great stuff on deck this week. A fantastic little short about the importance of kindness and some solid Emailable PD about soliciting student feedback. It’s a great time of year for it!
Enjoy!

One of the great downfalls of soliciting feedback is that we often do it far too late. Why wait until the end of the year to learn whether or not your students feel that your content is relevant? Get the info you need while you can still do something about it. That’s what we’re covering with your teachers this week. How to solicit age-appropriate feedback from students at all levels and what to do with it.
