Are You A Tigger or an EEyoure?

I have recently joined the Twitter world for real.  I mean I have dabbled before but I am truly finding the support and networking I need professionally and personally through Twitter.  Facebook is good to catch up with people but to truly grow and connect with people, Twitter is where it's at!  

One person I follow is Ryan Sheehy. (@sheehyrw)  He is a principal, associate professor at a university in CA, a father and is currently writing a book.  His recent tweet was the question above and it connected to his latest blog post.  You can read the entire post here but here are the lines that spoke to me the MOST!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"People and systems are going to let you down. Things and situations are not always going to go your way. We have no control over the actions of people that are in our lives. We have no control over the universe. But we do have control over who we are. I know that being a Tigger 100% of the time sounds daunting but being an Eeyore sounds unproductive and no fun."

"In education we are constantly faced with students, parents, and other educators. I have had my fare share of run ins with Eeyores, but that is when my Tigger personality bounces into full effect. We must stay positive, cheerful, and confident. We need to show perseverance and  bounce back from our failures. "

"Every educator has the choice when that alarm clock goes off each morning, are you getting out of bed as an Eeyore or a Tigger?"

"Be The One that who tries your best, is up to try new things, keeps going even when you fall, and always sees the glass as being half full."

DEVOLSON: The Dark, Evil Vortex of Late September, October and November...The End is Near

As Mrs. Brownlee shared earlier this year, DEVOLSON is REAL and thankfully we are almost out of this season.  One of the suggestions to survive DEVOLSON is to CYOC: Create Your Own Catharsis.  Catharsis is defined as: the process of releasing, and thereby providing relief from, strong or repressed emotions.  Here is my list that I use to CYOC and hopefully not cry at work (Mr. Thomas...nothing from you SIR):

The article linked here shares how the author creates her own catharsis and the other 4 ways to make it through the DEVOLSON.  We have five days left and I know we can make it!! See everyone tomorrow!- Angela

Vision Part II: Putting Your Vision on Paper

This is a great TEDx talk about putting your vision down on paper through pictures.  Thought it was a really great follow up to last week's blog.  You do not have to do this activity but could help with visions you are submitting to me.  Don't forget these are due by Tuesday, November 21st.  Hope you have had a great weekend and I look forward to seeing you tomorrow at school.

Is your vision 20/20?

"A vision is not just a picture of what could be; it is an appeal to our better selves, a call to become something more."

 - Rosabeth Moss Kanter

This week's blog is focused on having a vision.  Each of us need a vision to drive us to our personal goals.  How sad would our lives be if we just existed and never thought about improving ourselves or the world around us.  If you only focus on what you see in front of you, you are sure to become near sighted.  You only can see what is happening right in front of you and the further the event/chance is from you the focus is blurry.  When one's goals are blurry they often miss the mark and never truly reach their goal.  Then the person usually gets upset and says things like "I am not ________ because ________ held me back or distracted me."  You can fill in an adjective/ noun for the first blank and a noun for the second blank.  

How often do we hear statements like that from our students?

So let us be good examples of developing and focusing on a clear vision to reach the goals we set for ourselves. 

Here is my vision for myself as a school leader:

 I believe that we are supposed to improve the lives of others as we travel through this life.  Helping students achieve an education and appreciate learning is a goal of mine.  I feel that when adults have an education and a love of learning they are able to obtain a career they enjoy and will be able to provide for their most basic needs which enables them to give to their community (money, time, ability, etc.).  I want to help create a movement where everyone is able to give because they have enough to give.

"If you're running on a deficit in an area, then you aren't able to give in that area."

What is you vision for yourself?  

Your homework: Please email me a short statement on why you decided to impact students through the role you play in our school by Thanksgiving Break (mandatory for all staff).  Please title the email Vision Statement.

We will continue this focus of vision in our PLCs this month. This is the time of year when exhaustion and frustration can take hold and vision is what helps us continue to do the vital work that we do.  I think that this will help us identify the role we play in helping students achieve greatness each day and ways I might be able to help you reach your career goals.I look forward to reading your vision statements on why you do your role at TCEA.

Hope you've had a great weekend and I look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow! -Angela

The link they can register at is: http://bit.ly/2luWP7w

• If you change your daily schedule from the Master Schedule given to you, you will need to get approval from me first.  I have to assure the state of our schedule and I want to be in the loop when changes are made since I am signing off on it.

• "Our job is to teach the students we have. Not the ones we would like to have. Not the ones we used to have. Those we have right now. All of them."- Dr. Kevin Maxwell

Be Like A Chameleon...

Did you know that chameleons don't actually change their color to match their surroundings?  Seriously, they don't. I found this out after doing a quick Google search.

"Chameleons don't change color to match their environment. Rather, they change color as a response to mood, temperature, health, communication, and light. ... For instance, the Panther Chameleon will change to red and yellow when they are angry or are getting ready to attack."

Chameleons also are able to independently move both of their eyes and can see 360 degrees around.  That means that they can focus on two different stimuli but when ready to attack, both eyes can focus with laser like attention on their prey.  That's pretty impressive!

After visiting the Arts Based School (an arts integration charter school) and attending a two day session about the process of joining the A+ Network, I feel that I can truly see clearly.   I believe that by joining this network we will be able to continue to see the goals that the state has laid out for us (increased proficiency of state assessments) while tracking our ultimate goal of The Capitol Encore Academy:

The Capitol Encore Academy will develop artists who inspire others with principles of design and artful thinking through the integration of academic excellence, virtuous character and disciplined artistry.

 We should also be like chameleons when it comes to "changing our colors".  Each of us are at The Capitol Encore Academy because we have a talent/gift that our diverse student body needs.  We should not change who we are or forget why we decided to work at TCEA just because the environment might change at our school or in our world(s).  We all need to be attentive to how we might alter the school's mood, temperature, health, communication, etc. based on our feelings, thoughts, and emotions.  Our students deserve to see our very best and Haim Ginott said it best...

“I’ve come to a frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element in the classroom. It’s my personal approach that creates the climate. It’s my daily mood that makes the weather. As a teacher, I possess a tremendous power to make a child’s life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration. I can humiliate or heal. In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis will be escalated or de-escalated and a child humanized or dehumanized.” 


Let's go into this coming week focused and intentional.  I hope you've had an awesome weekend and I look forward to seeing everyone on Monday! - Angela

Self Reflect...not Self Loathe

Today I went to a leadership meeting at church and the leader told us that many times the only thing standing between where we are and where we want to be is ourselves.  She shared that the key to the breakthrough is self reflection and not self loathing.  

Wow! That is so true and usually when I reflect I start thinking about all the ways I need to change to improve and then that leads to me comparing myself to others and saying to myself (and to my team) I am not able. Last week I shared that if you know better...you have to do better.  I know better so I have to do better.  

Another mentor shared with me last year some of my personality traits that hold me back from being the best version of myself.  He was hesitant to share this with me because he knew, better than I, that I had problems accepting criticism.  I would like to think I have handled things better this year because of this incident.  He said, in the same way as the leader today, that the key is reflection not loathing.  This is exactly I needed to hear while reflecting on my visit to Arts Based Charter School this past Friday. This arts integration charter school has been around for 17 years and has grown to be a leader in the A+ Program in NC.  Here are a few ideas I'd like to share:

• Each classroom featured a Masterpiece of the Month and tied a piece of artwork to a musical connection.  For example for Hispanic Heritage Month:

Diego Rivera (1886 - 1957)

• Diego Rivera stands among the most famous Mexican muralists of all time. Known for his radical political and religion beliefs, Rivera often painted scenes that dealt with Mexican society and the Mexican Revolution of 1910. 

Musical Connection:

Gustavo Dudamel - Danzon n°2

• A teacher used a piece of artwork to illustrate the difference between wants and needs (clean water) in a 2nd grade Social Studies classroom.  The teacher then helped students reproduce the piece through the integration of art terms/concepts in the lesson. It was hard to detect where the social studies stopped and art curriculum began. This is not picture used but example of concept.

• Discipline is not a major issue at this school.  The leadership believes that your room should be a place your students want to stay in. Is what you're doing worth the student's time? If your classroom is really exciting they won't want to be sent out of class.
• They continuously ask themselves this question:
• What's working and what's not working? Once they find something that works they keep it.  They are basically using the same guide and plan each year and this ensures that each year students have something to look forward to that they didn't do the previous year.  EXAMPLE: each grade has a production that they do each year that is theirs.  They tie the units to these productions so they are part of the curriculum and not one more thing to do.

The BIG thing that I walked away with is that it takes time and self reflection to make a system come together.  The principal said it was around year 7 when things began to become 2nd Nature and wasn't as hard.  This is what anything good thing takes...time+reflection+ adjustments= Success!

Please seek out Mrs. Stoffer, Mrs. Ezell and Mr. Kline to get their thoughts from our trip as well.  We divided and conquered so I am unable to sum up the entire trip here! Looking forward to an amazing week and see everyone tomorrow!
