Questions

Questions. I have questions bouncing around my head. Questions mean wonder and curiosity. Questions are good.

I don't have answers, so instead, I'm going to pose my questions...

School?  

How can I make it better?  

What is my role as a teacher?

Classroom organization?

What's the best way to work with other teachers?

How do I connect with students?

What do grades really mean?

How do I get better and meet their needs? How can school look different?

Why do I do what I'm doing in the classroom?

How do I balance technology and analog learning?

Are tests necessary? Why? What is their purpose? How do they make us better learners?

How can students demonstrate their learning in a meaningful way?

How do I help them grow and learn?

How can I find a way to better organize their notebooks?

What books will help them fall in love with reading?

What will make a difference to my students?

Why?

I'm not looking for answers. (And most of my questions focus on me since that's what I can change. I can change. I can get better and learn.) My hope is that if I just keep asking questions, I'll learn something along the way.
