I have spent a couple of days the last two weeks at conferences and I have LOVED every minute of it! I have gotten to meet some wonderful and incredibly creative people! I have gotten some great ideas to incorporate in my classroom to help my students be more successful learners and some insight into how to get results in the classroom and in life.
Last week I spent my Wednesday at the NEAEC conference at BSLK. It was wonderful! Kim Adsit was the keynote speaker and she was amazing! She was incredibly funny, insightful and motivating!
Today I spent my day at the Marshall County Professional development Academy. The keynote speaker was the New York Times bestseller, Andy Andrews. Boy was he charismatic, passionate and super funny! He shared some of his principles for obtaining the life that you want. It was such a simple concept, but we often forget the importance of a smile and taking responsibility for our own actions. Something I want my students to learn and practice everyday. "We control our own destiny!".
I have had a blast learning and am even more pumped for this new year! I cant wait to share with my students my love of learning and encourage them to find theirs too!
I will leave you with this video of the speaker I heard today...just some food for thought. :) Click Here.
